Creating an Azure App Service App

In this hands-on lab, you are working as a cloud engineer for Tech Tangos, an up-and-coming computer repair company. You’ve been asked to find a way to host a website in Azure, instead of having to host it on the owner's server in his garage. You’ll use the Azure portal and Azure CLI to create an Azure App Service app as a proof-of-concept that websites can be hosted on Azure App Services.
