ASP.NET Core 9.0 introduces the MapStaticAssets feature, offering enhancements over the previous UseStaticFiles middleware. It enables build time compression of assets using gzip and brotli, streamlining server configuration by eliminating the need for dynamic compression. ETags are also enhanced, using SHA-256 hashes for more efficient file versioning. Despite its advantages, MapStaticAssets doesn't yet support all features of UseStaticFiles.
