It's clear now why my initial attempt yesterday morning went haywire ... I tried to create a solution and project to contain the static site. It turns out you "Open Web Site", which I never tried because it was counterintuitive to normal VS2015 usage. Then I wasn't sure what sort of Azure "publish target" to use, as the choice of "App Service" sounds inappropriate, but it's not! I'm not sure how to use plans. Do I group similar sites and apps within the same plan? I haven't worked out a convention for their use yet. Every deploy I've tried produces the "Can't find existing loaded project" error, so the hint about opening the View > Other Windows > Web Publish Activity window and clicking the tiny button to continue was vitally important. I reckon it would have taken an hour to jump that hurdle that without help. So overall, it works easily (once you know the tricks) and I can see the static site nicely at http://myname.azurewebsites.net<https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=http%3a%2f%2fazurewebsites.net&data=01%7c01%7cACOAT%40064d.mgd.microsoft.com%7c900d79c2c3c540ae923208d3283e126f%7c72f988bf86f141af91ab2d7cd011db47%7c1&sdata=rjx35Jd%2b9a8QU%2buKTuukez259aWgikA3ttgqFX6xg%2bc%3d>. All I have to figure out now it how to fiddle DNS and the like so that the world sees my com.au domain name pointing to this Azure web.

There aren’t many options that need to be chosen. That'd be great if you have a break. Only the skeleton of the steps should get me going. Once I get the files in the right sort of project and deploy with suitable settings I should be able to extrapolate and find all the configuration stuff about host headers and DNS and the like. I'll make a blog post after I get it all working -- Greg K
