Using Azure Web Apps with Containers, Linux, and Cloud Shell

In this lab, you will gain experience using the Azure Cloud Shell to create App Service plans using Linux, and web apps using Docker containers. You will use the Azure Cloud Shell to create a Linux App Service plan, and a web app under that plan which uses Docker images on DockerHub and GitHub. When you're finished, you will browse to your site to see everything running and will verify all the resources you created using the Azure Portal. Upon completion of the lab, you will have gained the experience required to use the Azure Cloud Shell to create App Service plans using Linux and web apps using Docker containers.
