Many legacy web applications exist that were written in a version of .NET Framework. In many cases, these codebases can be upgraded to .NET 5 without too much trouble, and unlock a lot of performance improvements, features, and scalability that don't exist in .NET Framework. In this talk, you will learn from my years of experience helping clients upgrade their ASP.NET applications to .NET Core, and now .NET 5. We'll go step-by-step through the process that we use, review some reasonable expectations you can have, and talk about the most common pitfalls of the upgrade process.
