VS Code - Alternative for Deploy To Azure Extension?

Question

I used to use this MS VS Code extension ( Deploy to Azure ) to publish various webapps to Azure. I liked it particularly well because you could publish to a specific Deployment Slot (eg. Staging). Unfortunately, it's now been deprecated and no longer works. Are there any recommended alternative extensions that can accomplish the same task (deploying to a specific Azure slot)

Answer 1

As Per this GitHub-VSCode-Extensions-Update ,

Hi! Please note that this extension is being deprecated and will be removed from VS code marketplace on 11 April 2022.

This also means that " Configure CI/CD Workflow " and " B rowse CI/CD Workflows " option will no longer be available on Azure Kube.netes Service extension.

Please move your workloads away from the extension before 11 April 2022.

As an alternative, you may choose to use Starter workflows from GitHub to quickly onboard your application to GitHub Actions. You may alternatively choose to use Create file API to create a Actions workflow file and Secrets API to create pre-requisites deployment secrets.
