You're talking about .net for server applications right? The discussion above is for client apps being distributed for windows endusers.

Just ship a self contained build?

  • This was a sidecar application distributed by literally millions of installs per day - so having a 25MB "self contained" build was out of the question - we were targeting KB-sized distributables not 10's of MB.

We have a small MAUI part of the application, it's not massive but it's working fine with .Net Upgrades.
