Azure Static Web Apps
Azure Static Web Apps is a fully managed service from Microsoft Azure that enables developers to build and deploy modern web applications with serverless backends. It automatically builds and deploys static web apps from code repositories like GitHub, Azure DevOps, or GitLab, and provides integrated features such as global content delivery, authentication, and API integration. It is designed for applications built with static site generators or JavaScript frameworks like React, Angular, or Vue.
Developers should use Azure Static Web Apps when building static or Jamstack applications that require seamless deployment, scalability, and integrated backend services without managing infrastructure. It is ideal for projects like blogs, portfolios, e-commerce sites, or single-page applications where fast performance and low operational overhead are priorities. The service simplifies workflows by automating builds from Git and offering built-in security and global distribution.
