OpenTelemetry

In my previous .NET Aspire blog post, we talked about using .NET Aspire to orchestrate the different parts of our web application. However, the .NET Aspire dashboard did not show any telemetry (traces, metrics, or structured logging) because we did not instrument the API or front-end code. We are going to change that in this article, and see how we can easily integrate OpenTelemetry into our application.
