deploy-to-azure

Deploy the application stack to Azure Container Apps using the Azure Developer CLI (azd).

Deployment Steps

1. Environment Check

   • Verify the .azure directory exists.
   • If missing, run azd init (with --no-prompt if possible, or ask user) to initialize the environment.
   • Run /doctor to verify prerequisites.

2. Authentication

   • Run azd auth login to ensure the session is active.
   • Tip: If the user says they are already logged in, you can verify with azd auth show-status (if available) or proceed.

// turbo 3. Deploy

• Run azd up to provision resources and deploy the code.
• This command may take several minutes.
• Be ready to handle prompts if SafeToAutoRun is not enabled.

4. Verify Deployment
   • Upon success, run azd show to retrieve the public endpoints.
   • Display the webfrontend URL to the user so they can access their deployed app.
