The article outlines a method for deploying a Strapi project on an Azure virtual machine using an Azure Resource Manager (ARM) template, which facilitates an infrastructure-as-code approach for efficient and consistent deployment. It provides a step-by-step process involving minimal user intervention, using a bash script for Strapi installation post-VM provisioning, with default parameters for both Azure infrastructure and Strapi configuration. The template and script are available on a GitHub repository, and users are advised against using the setup in production environments without modifications. The deployment process, which takes approximately 5-10 minutes, includes creating a new resource group and selecting a preferred region in the Azure portal. While basic knowledge of Azure and ARM templates is beneficial for customization, the guide aims to streamline the setup process with pre-defined variables, ensuring ease of use for exploration or sandbox scenarios.
