How do you deploy an ASP.NET Core app to Azure App Service?

Short answer: Visual Studio: Right-click project → Publish → Azure → App Service → Create or select existing → Publish. Azure CLI: az webapp up --name myapp --resource-group myResourceGroup --runtime "DOTNET:6.0"

Real-world example (ShopNest)

ShopNest’s API runs on Azure App Service with staging slots—swap staging to production after smoke tests.

Say this in the interview

1. Define — one clear sentence (the short answer above).
2. Example — relate it to a project like ShopNest or your real work.
3. Trade-off — when you would not use it.
