Disabling caching a webapp

By default, Azure is caching files to speed-up the access to your Web app.

This may be inconvenient when you are developing and frequently uploading files on the FTP server for instance.

You can reach a state where: main.js has been erased on the FTP, but main.js is availabke through your browser.

On www.portal.azure.com:

• Go to your Webapp page
• Select Application settings
• Scroll down to App settings
• Add the key WEBSITE_DYNAMIC_CACHE with the value 0

And voilà !

Don’t forget to reenable it once you are done developing.
