Conversion from ASP.NEt Core to ASP 5

Question

I have designed a site in ASP.NET Core and now I am getting this new thing ASP 5. So, should I do the conversion or continue to work on asp core.

Answer 1

You don’t specify which version of core you are using. 3.1 is a LTS version, while 5 is not. 3.1 support ends 12/3/2022, while 5 support ends earlier on around February 2022 (3 months after 6 release).

Version 6 will be a LTS release and is due in September. At this point, I’d skip 5 and upgrade to 6 when you feel ready.

If you do upgrade to 5, plan on an upgrade right away to 6.

Answer 2

There is literally no "ASP 5".

If you meant "ASP.NET Core 5", while you are currently using ASP.NET Core 2.1 LTS or 3.1 LTS (other releases were end of life), you can decide yourself whether to migrate to 5.0 at this moment, because 5.0 is not a LTS release (6.0 in Nov 2021 will be LTS).

If you do plan to migrate, then Microsoft already has the guide for you at https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/aspnet/core/migration/31-to-50?view=aspnetcore-5.0&tabs=visual-studio
