Create a simple non-docker version of App #258

Open nssidhu opened 9 months ago

nssidhu commented 9 months ago

The current Source code cannot be made to run on local installation without docker. I would say this has steep learning curve or steep setup curve. There is lack of explanation as well. I know the intention of docker was to make it simple, but if docker itself is a problem, this becomes non-starter. Unless the intention of this project was to impart knowledge to masses and make them understand how the different part of the projects to use, this is failing to achieve objective.

There are thousands of developers who are not using docker.

Please provide non-docker version and very good explanation.

100% agree with this. I tried setting this up locally and I get all sorts of errors when running the azd up. One of the issues was with the docker part then once I got that fixed I am getting lots of other errors.

FWIW - you can deploy each resource to Azure individually, then starmap your resources back to IaC through bicep. We also had issues with the Docker architecture for Linux with private Nuget repos, so you can always just deploy your Website architecture to Windows App Service.

Totally agree. WHY do they have to over complicate things. Make a simple console app that illustrates the connection between the services, then developers can decide for them self to use docker, kubernetes, a space shuttle or what the h. they want.
