Do you deploy your SQL Database Projects with a CD pipeline, and notice that .dacpac deployments take sooo much time - even when nothing changes? Working on a solution (down to milliseconds) - but I need your help to verify it. Please reply or contact me via GitHub if you are interested.

.NET Aspire has a load of integrations "out of the box", but did you know there's a community toolkit that adds integrations for a bunch of other stuff, like Java, Golang, Rust, NodeJS, Dapr RavenDB, and a bunch of other integrations and add-on features?
