This is the repository for the LinkedIn Learning course Azure Functions for Developers. The full course is available from LinkedIn Learning.
In this course, learn how to use Azure Functions to develop applications. Instructor Rodrigo Díaz Concha covers the benefits of Azure Functions and their different hosting plans. Learn how to create and deploy function apps and how to develop, test, debug, and run event-driven code on your local computer, as well as in Visual Studio using .NET. Learn about triggers, bindings, and how to implement both in Azure Functions. The course begins with an introduction to the core concepts, including the benefits of Azure Functions, execution models, and the setup of the development environment. After that, Rodrigo covers advanced topics such as dependency injection, middleware integration, and the creation of Function Apps using different methods, including ARM templates and Azure Bicep.
See the readme file in the main branch for updated instructions and information.
This repository has branches for each of the videos in the course. You can use the branch pop up menu in github to switch to a specific branch and take a look at the course at that stage, or you can add /tree/BRANCH_NAME to the URL to go to the branch you want to access.
The branches are structured to correspond to the videos in the course. The naming convention is CHAPTER#_MOVIE#. As an example, the branch named 02_03 corresponds to the second chapter and the third video in that chapter.
Some branches will have a beginning and an end state. These are marked with the letters b for "beginning" and e for "end". The b branch contains the code as it is at the beginning of the movie. The e branch contains the code as it is at the end of the movie. The main branch holds the final state of the code when in the course.
