Describe the bug

When trying to Publish / Deploy using the Aspire CLI for my project that has a ASP.Net API and a couple of Vite frontend applications

using Common.Enums;

var builder = DistributedApplication.CreateBuilder(args);

// Add Docker Compose environment for publishing
builder.AddDockerComposeEnvironment(AspireServiceEnum.Compose.ToServiceName());


var postgres = builder.AddPostgres(AspireServiceEnum.Postgres.ToServiceName())
	.WithImage("postgres:17.0")
	.WithDataVolume("Scarlett")
	.WithContainerName("ScarlettDatabase")
	.WithHostPort(5433);

postgresdb = postgres.AddDatabase(AspireServiceEnum.ScarlettDB.ToServiceName());

// Add migration service
builder.AddProject<Projects.MigrationService>(AspireServiceEnum.Migrations.ToServiceName())
	.WithReference(postgresdb)
	.WaitFor(postgresdb);


var api = builder.AddProject<Projects.API>(AspireServiceEnum.API.ToServiceName())
	.WithReference(postgresdb)
	.WithReference(volumeClustering)
	.WithReference(plateCaddyCalibration);

var frontend = builder.AddViteApp(AspireServiceEnum.Frontend.ToServiceName(), "../Frontend")
	.WithPnpm()
	.WithReference(api);

var debugger = builder.AddViteApp(AspireServiceEnum.Debugger.ToServiceName(), "../ScarlettDebugger")
	.WithPnpm()
	.WithReference(api);

var gateway = builder.AddYarp(AspireServiceEnum.Gateway.ToServiceName())
	.WithHostPort(80)
	.WithConfiguration(yarp =>
	{
		// Configure routes programmatically
		yarp.AddRoute(frontend);
		yarp.AddRoute("/debugger/{**catch-all}", debugger);
		yarp.AddRoute("/api/{**catch-all}", api);
		yarp.AddRoute("/dev/{**catch-all}", api);
		yarp.AddRoute("/hub/{**catch-all}", api);
		yarp.AddRoute("/openapi/{**catch-all}", api);
	});

builder.Build().Run();

Expected Behavior

With Aspire 13.2 i Expected publish to generate the Docker compose file, and deploy to generate the default docker file for a aspire app as stated in the JavaScript docs
