Hi folks

I am investigating using Azure blob storage and CDN to host a static
website with a contact form because this provides low cost hosting and ssl.

I have managed to get the site working but with the following limitations

1) I am yet to map the domain directly to an blob.
ie the user has to go to https://www.mydomain.com/index.html  not
https://www.mydomain.com

I gather Microsoft plan to fix this this year

I have googled some workarounds involving Azure Functions or CDN Rewrite
rules but am yet to try.


2) How to do a Contact form that emails me on submit.

I have seen some advice at
https://stackoverflow.com/questions/9533172/adding-contact-form-to-a-static-website


I am wanting some advice on how to proceed.  I don't mind a bit of a
learning curve as long as the learning is not going to be redundant in 6
months time.

Maybe I should just do a web app with Cloudflare for ssl ( which I have
done before)  and wait.

Thoughts and experiences?
Kirsten
