var builder = DistributedApplication.CreateBuilder(args);

var mailpit = builder.AddMailPit("mailpit");

var xyz = builder.AddProject<Xyz>("application")
    .WithReference(mailpit)
    .WaitFor(mailpit);

builder.Build().Run();

Example 2: Add MailPit with user-defined ports

var builder = DistributedApplication.CreateBuilder(args);

var mailpit = builder.AddMailPit("mailpit", 80, 25);

var xyz = builder.AddProject<Xyz>("application")
