# Deploy to Azure Storage

In the **AZURE STORAGE** explorer, expand your subscription and find the Azure Storage account that you just created and expand the **Blob Containers** node. Notice the `$web` container, this was created when you enabled static website hosting and this is where your application code will be deployed.

## Deploy your website

1. Open your application code in VS Code, right-click on your **build** directory, and choose **Deploy to Static Website...**.
