I created a simple node.js express app that I want to host in an Azure Windows App Service. The App Service resource was created successfully on Azure. The project was created using the "Node.js Web Application" template.

When I attempt to deploy from Visual Studio 2019, I get the following error message:

web.config not found in project, to create a project to deploy to Microsoft Azure you must create an Azure Node.js project.

Is there a different template I should be using? If not, what the contents of the web.config file look like, so I can attempt to create it by hand.

• Copy the already created source files to the newly created Azure node.js Application.

Update
