The Next.js example for Umbraco is live!

Handling Redirects with Middleware in .Net

Owain Williams describes a method for handling redirects during a site migration to Umbraco 13 using middleware and a client-maintained CSV file as the source of truth. The middleware reads the CSV to map old URLs to new ones, logging redirects with Serilog. The implementation is straightforward, ensuring efficient URL management.
