❔ Best way to migrate ASP.NET MVC to .NET 7
I would like to know if anyone has already migrated an ASP.NET MVC app to .NET 7 or if anyone knows the best way to approach the migration.
Thank you in advance!

You uh.. didn't specify what version of ASP.NET you are migrating from?
Upgrade Assitant?
That said, migrating
.aspx to .cshtml alone won't be smooth
Far as the process itself goes... you can either migrate to .NET 7 and push it all to prod at once
Or you can do a piecemeal upgrade, with some reverse proxy in the front that would redirect the routes not implemented in the migrated project to the old onesorry, razor pages with .NET Framework 4.8
ASP.NET MVC 4.5
So you want to migrate from ASP.NET MVC 4.5 to .NET Fx 4.8 Razor Pages?

there are packages (which the upgrade assistant will install) to help smooth over the migration by letting you keep existing
System.Web code
for things it can’t migrate, it creates a reverse proxy that forwards those endpoints to your ASP.NET 4.x app
that might be a little overkill depending on how complex this app is, you may just want to do it in one gothank you very much @reflectronic !
will test it tomorrow
