" summary

Builds a working React + .NET blog/CRM in under a day using Cosmos DB for content, Azure Blob for images and a CDN for delivery; shows concrete code for creating databases and two containers (blogs, users), partitioning by id, and the Cosmos DB emulator workflow. Explains choosing serverless vs provisioned RUs (avoids past 10,000‑RU bill), notes a real SDK snag (Azure Storage blob 12.11 required downgrading to 12.10), forces sync waits to avoid emulator race conditions, and shows an image cleanup query that correctly deletes unused blobs.
