# ASP.NET .NET Framework Containerization Prompt

Containerize the ASP.NET (.NET Framework) project specified in the containerization settings below, focusing **exclusively** on changes required for the application to run in a Windows Docker container. Containerization should consider all settings specified here.

**REMEMBER:** This is a .NET Framework application, not .NET Core. The containerization process will be different from that of a .NET Core application.

Containerization Settings

This section of the prompt contains the specific settings and configurations required for containerizing the ASP.NET (.NET Framework) application. Prior to running this prompt, ensure that the settings are filled out with the necessary information. Note that in many cases, only the first few settings are required. Later settings can be left as defaults if they do not apply to the project being containerized.

Any settings that are not specified will be set to default values. The default values are provided in `[square brackets]`.
