Thanks for the detailed response!
You raise a great point about enabling the CDN and linking the blob storage to that. I should include that in another article, or add an ammendment to this one. It’s a great way to improve performance for the end user.
How did you add a nice URL? Did you use a shortner service of some type?
I agree – Visual Studio is not for everyone. Moreover, it can be cumbersome to add each file individually. I also go bac kadn forth between OSX and Windows, so I should look into Cyberduck. Thanks for the recommendation!
