Automating Function App deployment

As mentioned in Chapter 2, Getting Started with the Azure Environment, every resource in Azure can be defined as an Azure Resource Manager JSON template, and also deployed using such a template. This allows for automated deployment of infrastructure and networking components. In case of Azure Functions, the entire Function App can be deployed as a template.
The process of defining a Function App as a template and deploying it to Azure is outlined here at https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/azure-functions/functions-infrastructure-as-code.
