ARM Templates & Bicep

Deploy Azure infrastructure with ARM templates and Bicep. Bicep is the recommended domain-specific language that compiles to ARM JSON, offering cleaner syntax, modules, and first-class tooling support.

When to Use

• You need Azure-native Infrastructure as Code without third-party tooling.
• Your organization standardizes on Azure and wants tight portal integration.
• You need What-If analysis before deploying changes.
• You are migrating existing ARM JSON templates to Bicep for maintainability.
• You need deployment scopes at resource group, subscription, management group, or tenant level.

Prerequisites

# Install Azure CLI
curl -sL https://aka.ms/InstallAzureCLIDeb | sudo bash

# Install Bicep CLI (bundled with Azure CLI 2.20+)
az bicep install
az bicep upgrade

# Verify installation
az bicep version

# Login and set subscription
az login
az account set --subscription "my-subscription-id"

Bicep Fundamentals
