Update .NET App for Azure, based in pune

I need my existing cloud-hosted application brought up to date. The codebase is currently on .NET 6 and must be cleanly converted to .NET 10 while keeping every feature intact.

The focus is entirely on the back-end: business logic, API layers and the database integration that connects to Azure SQL. Along the way, any NuGet dependencies that block the version jump need to be replaced or upgraded, and build pipelines in Azure DevOps adjusted so the new build targets compile and release without manual tweaks.

Once the code compiles on .NET 10, it has to be redeployed to my Azure environment behind Azure Bastion. A successful hand-off means:

• the application runs in the new runtime without warnings or breaking changes
• database migrations (EF Core) run automatically on first deploy
• all existing API endpoints return the same payloads as before
• the app is reachable through the current Bastion set-up and passes a smoke test I will supply

Please work in a private fork of my repo, open a pull request when the upgrade is stable, and document any code sections you had to refactor so I can review them quickly.
