every time I create a repo I ask copilot to add gitignore, add LICENSE, etc.
'repo-ready' skill gets your repo all setup to go live with all the necessary files in place.
'install repo-ready from jongio/skills'
- azd 1.27.0 can deploy container images to Azure App Service. Set language: docker with host: appservice, and azd builds the image, pushes it to ACR, and updates the site's container config.
- You can now write 'azd hooks' in Python, TypeScript and JavaScript! I built a sample template showing all three languages in action. Blog: blog.jongallant.com/2026/04/azd-ho… Template: github.com/jongio/azd-hoo… #azure #azd #dev #microsoft
- azd custom params - Someone asked me how to add custom prompts to azd up. Couldn't find one comprehensive doc, so I built a sample repo showing 3 approaches - allowed pick lists, free-text params, and hooks. blog.jongallant.com/2026/04/azd-cu… github.com/jongio/azd-cus… #azd #azure #dev
- `azd update` is live. I kept forgetting how I installed azd, so updating was always annoying. The team shipped `azd update` and now it's just one command, any platform, done. Try it and file issues if you hit anything. blog.jongallant.com/2026/04/azd-up… #azd #azure #microsoft #devx
