Let's dive in to the latest features of Azure Functions - the serverless compute offering for Azure. After a quick recap of what Azure Functions are and what problems they can solve, we'll find out how Functions can now run .NET 5 (and .NET 6 in preview) and cover:

• What works better?

• What works differently (aka breaking changes)?

• Why might you choose to stick with .NET Core 3.1?

• What can you do in Visual Studio versus the CLI?

• How can you add OpenAPI/Swagger support?

• How would you automate the deployment with GitHub Actions or Azure Pipelines?
