Description

_This issue has been moved from [a ticket on Developer Community](https://developercommunity.visualstudio.com/t/Creating-Aspire-projects-should-warn-abo/10823506)._

---
I created a new ASP.NET Core Project, .NET 9, Checked the "Enlist in Aspire" checkbox, my first Aspire project and of course, it did not compiler.

I had a hard time figuring out why.

The problem was that I had spaces in the project name, so I got this code:

builder.AddProject<Projects.Data Protection Demo>("data protection demo");

That clearly does not compile, when I have space in the project name.

I wish Visual Studio would have warned me in the new project dialog or that it properly handled when I have space in the filename, that it replaces it with _ or something eise.
