Deprecate generator-aspnet package

At this point, yo aspnet is significantly outdated. But some old tutorials still use it, so I think it would be nice to discourage its use.

Probably the best way would be to deprecate the generator-aspnet package, with a message pointing to dotnet new.

@svick thx!

@sayedihashimi can you still do this and publish deprecate to NPM?
https://docs.npmjs.com/cli/deprecate

Sorry for the delay. I have marked it deprecated.

What should we do in the repo? I was thinking the following:

  • Update readme letting people know to use dotnet new
  • Close all open issues
  • 👍2

@sayedihashimi
Archive repo:
https://help.github.com/articles/about-archiving-repositories/
That's best user friendly way I think,

Thanks, the issues have been closed out as well as the only open PR. I just updated the Readme and now I'll archive it.

It was really great working on this project, truly one of the highlights of my career. It makes me sad to archive this, but our goals were achieved in dotnet new. I still love templates and likely always will.
