Sample Apps
Applications you can clone and deploy against the LocalStack Azure emulator. Each card links to the
source, which carries the README, the architecture diagram and everything needed to run the
sample.
Every sample provides a shell script that uses the Azure CLI to create the Azure resources and deploy the demo application. Where available, the sample also provides Bicep templates and Terraform modules that provision the same infrastructure, so you can choose whichever approach you prefer. Most samples add a second script that validates the deployment once it is running. Every deployment has been tested against Azure as well as against the local emulator.
Most samples ship in more than one language. Each language variant is a card of its own, tagged with the language it is written in, so the Language filter narrows the grid to the variants you can actually run.
They come from two repositories:
- localstack-azure-samples: App Service, Function App, Container Instances and data services, in Python, .NET and Java. All but one are deployed by the repository’s samples CI workflow, which covers 70 deployments across the Azure CLI, Bicep and Terraform and, on a pull request, runs the ones whose files changed. Those samples carry a CI verified badge.
- aks-samples: the same vacation-planner
application on an emulated AKS cluster against a range of backing stores, in Python and .NET. Each
one provides numbered shell scripts that create the backing service, build and push the container
image, and deploy the workload with
kubectl. They are run by hand, so treat them as demonstrations rather than continuously verified samples.

AKS: Vacation Planner on Azure Files (.NET)
The vacation-planner app on AKS storing each activity as a text file on an Azure Files share, mounted into every pod by the Azure Files CSI driver. Uses no Azure SDK at all — the app just calls the file system, and three replicas mount the same share ReadWriteMany.

View on GitHub →Container Instances with Blob Storage and Key Vault
CI verified
Containerised Flask app on Azure Container Instances that pulls its image from Container Registry and reads a secret from Key Vault, with activity data in Blob Storage.
View on GitHub →Event Hubs Capture with Event Grid and Functions
CI verified
Cold-chain monitoring pipeline where Azure announces when a batch is ready instead of code polling for it: Capture archives telemetry to Blob Storage as Avro, Event Grid raises CaptureFileCreated, and a Function App aggregates each archive into a curated hub.
View on GitHub →Function App behind API Management
CI verified
Python Function App published through an API Management gateway. Only the gateway holds the shared secret the function requires, so clients authenticate with a subscription key while the gateway enforces a rate limit, answers CORS preflights and injects the secret on every backend call.
View on GitHub →Function App behind Azure Front Door
CI verified
Two Function Apps serving a catalog API behind Azure Front Door Standard, one as the priority origin and one as a standby checked by health probes. Covers route specificity, caching and purge, and a rule set that stamps headers, rewrites a path prefix and redirects a retired path at the edge.
