AWS Transform expands .NET transformation capabilities and enhances developer experience

Today, AWS announces the general availability of expanded .NET transformation capabilities and an enhanced developer experience in AWS Transform. Customers can now modernize .NET Framework and .NET code to .NET 10 or .NET Standard. New transformation capabilities include UI porting of ASP.NET Web Forms to Blazor on ASP.NET Core and porting Entity Framework ORM code. The new developer experience, available with the AWS Toolkit for Visual Studio 2026 or 2022, is customizable, interactive, and iterative. It includes an editable transformation plan, estimated transformation time, real-time updates during transformation, the ability to repeat transformations with a revised plan, and next steps markdown for easy handoff to AI code companions. With these enhancements, AWS Transform provides a path to modern .NET for more project types, supports the latest releases of .NET and Visual Studio, and gives developers oversight and control of transformations.

Developers can now streamline their .NET modernization through an enhanced IDE experience. The process begins with automated code analysis that produces a customizable transformation plan. Developers can customize the transformation plan, such as fine-tuning package updates. Throughout the transformation, they benefit from transparent progress tracking and detailed activity logs. Upon completion, developers receive a Next Steps document that outlines remaining tasks, including Linux readiness requirements, which they can address through additional AWS Transform iterations or by leveraging AI code companion tools such as Kiro.

AWS Transform is available in the following AWS Regions: US East (N. Virginia), Asia Pacific (Mumbai), Asia Pacific (Seoul), Asia Pacific (Sydney), Asia Pacific (Tokyo), Canada (Central), Europe (Frankfurt), and Europe (London).
