Deploy to Azure App Service

How to deploy to Azure App Service with Buddy?

Deploying to Azure App Service with Buddy is a straightforward process. All you need to do is create a project and set up a pipeline. Once these steps are completed, Buddy takes care of the rest, automatically updating the files in your Azure account with the latest changes from the repository. You can also configure the pipeline to run recurrently or manually on click.
