Remarks

The DistributedApplicationBuilder is the primary implementation of IDistributedApplicationBuilder within .NET Aspire. Typically a developer would interact with instances of this class via the IDistributedApplicationBuilder interface which was created using one of the CreateBuilder(String[]) overloads.

For more information on how to configure the DistributedApplication using the the builder pattern see IDistributedApplicationBuilder.
