Building Compiled In-Process Functions

Compiled in-process functions are represented by function apps that have been compiled into an executable. The executable is then deployed into an Azure function app service. The application runs inside the same process as the function is running under.

The below project contains an example of an in-process function app. This project represents a simple function with the HTTP trigger and basic chatbot functionality. We can trigger it by sending either a GET or POST HTTP request to it. If we don’t send any data in the request, it returns a response asking for our name. If we send the name either in the name query string parameter or the name field of the request body, the function returns the response that greets us by the name.
