Process Overview - Local Development

In this section of this article I will cover how I was working with local development on my laptop. I have a Visual Studio solution which includes the following:

• 1 x Function App using the function app template for C# and .net core
• 1 x Logic App
• 1 x Visual Studio project with files for APIM in them
• 1 x Visual Studio SSDT project for SQL

The diagram below will show how on my local developer machine I will develop in Visual Studio the solution and I will have a process that uses Terraform, ARM and Powershell to configure an Azure Resource Group for my development. I will then use Visual Studio to deploy some code artifacts as I build.

The process I use is listed below:

• Pre-reqs
• Step 1 - Deploy Infrastructure
• Step 2 - Setting up Function Keys
• Step 3 - Making changes and deploying Function code
• Step 4 - Making changes and deploying Logic App code
• Step 5 - Making changes and deploying SQL Database
• Step 6 - Making changes and deploying APIM
• Step 7 - Adding and changing the infrastructure
• More info on Terraform files

The additional pages in this section will cover each of these steps in more detail.
