Publishing an ASP .Net Core application. What is the best way to do it?

Question

ASP.NET

There is a site on ASP .Net Core. When making changes and improvements, publication on the server (regru, windows) is required. So, I have to perform the following operations:
- in the hosting control panel, I suspend the site in order to unload the process. At this time, the site is unavailable and gives the code 5xx.
- only after that it becomes possible to copy the files to the server with the replacement of the old ones.
As a result, the publication on the server takes from 10 to 20 minutes. However, the site is unavailable.
Are there other options for publishing to the server?

Answer 1

Publish to a different folder. Then you change the site's root directory.
If the hosting panel allows it.
