It has become quite popular to do webcasts, live-streaming and other types of video stuff on the internet. Last year, in 2019, I have started doing this myself also. We’ve started doing so-called 4DNCasts, which is a webcast where a couple of colleagues and I talk about development & technology stuff.
I’m also doing live-coding sessions myself on Twitch and store the recordings on my YouTube channel. There are also a couple of other, virtual sessions, which you can find on this channel.

Our ARM template looked very similar to the one below in order to install & configure the certificates in our App Service.

As I mentioned in the earlier post, it makes a lot more sense to host static websites on an Azure Storage Account with the Static website hosting.

Of course, both of them are open source, so I could spend a lot of time fixing the issues. But as with most of us, our schedule is already packed with a lot of other side-projects.
