Intro To Azure Static Web Apps - Free Hosting, SSL, Global Distribution, and More

Creating a website that is globally distributed, incredibly fast, and automatically deployed used to be hard. Adding in custom domains and SSL certificates used to be even more tricky. Now all of that can be done for free and in a few minutes. In this video, we are going to look at how to use Azure Static Web Apps to host a Blazor WebAssembly application with a custom domain. The site will be replicated around the globe and will be secured with an SSL certificate all without us doing anything additional.

The coolest part besides the service itself is the built-in CI/CD workflow. To have that created automatically is just a nice feature of the dev workflow. Awesome!

So can we use "static web app" for frontend and "web app"/"virtual machine" for backend?
and can we call API in the frontend that is hosted in "static web app"?

Great tutorial, thank you.. Only issue I have is that the GitHub workflow requires a file index.html which is not included in the standard blazor web app template. I have added an index.html file to the wwwroot folder and the workflow now works successfully, however I dont seem to be able to view anything other than this index file, ie. the root of my application always defaults/redirects to the index.html. Do you have any suggestions.

Question: Have you ever done a video on how to manage responsibilities between classes? I've used a lot of your youtube content to help self teach myself c#. I'm starting to struggle with how to visualize and then organize the division of responsibilities between classes. Ie one class is dependent on another to have some of its properties filled out, which class should have the methods to fill those properties?

Thank you very much for your content Tim. You have been the single best resource in my journey.

Does Azure Static Web Apps support next.js server side rendering?

[golodiassaid]

Would have been game changer if for example they enable receiving emails or notification so that visitors reach out to me. Having said that, this is awesome service and thanks azure for providing

So if you host your API on Azure App Service and Azure SQL and then have a Blazor Client App in Azure Static Web Apps, it should work? If you can do that, it would make your client available from anywhere and lower hosting costs.

Thanks for the video. I would like to have heard that it is not for mvc, api etc at the beginning though.

Thank you for your kind workm I really appreciate your work. Keep uploading more stuff

[andrewlai]

would a static web app works with a typical C# MVC web site? Thanks,

[SireComplexity]

Hey Tim I think you should add another record in the Custom Domain for the domain itself and then add a CNAME/ALIAS for @

At 9:23 I though Mr. Corey was about to teach us how to "dig" some REALY secret code. lol

Is there a way around the over 8MB initial download (even reducing the size) for azure static web apps seeing it is only static content?
