Deploy ASP.NET
ASP.NET backends work by running the app locally and tunneling the port with Mekong.
This applies to ASP.NET Core APIs, MVC apps, minimal APIs, and similar .NET web servers.
Basic flow
dotnet run
mekong 5000If your app runs on another port, expose that port instead.
Common setup
dotnet run --urls http://0.0.0.0:5000
mekong 5000Best fit
Use this when:
- your ASP.NET app should keep running as a live backend
- you need public API/webhook access
- the frontend is separate from the backend process
