Bicep Generator
Scaffold a basic Bicep file for a Storage Account, Virtual Network, or App Service, runs entirely in your browser.

About this tool
Pick a resource type, a name, a location, and (where relevant) a SKU, and get a working Bicep file using current, real API versions for that resource. This is a starting point for infrastructure-as-code on Azure, the Bicep equivalent of what the Terraform/Helm generators already do for their respective ecosystems.
Storage account names are validated against Azure’s actual naming rule (3-24 lowercase letters and numbers, no hyphens) before any Bicep is generated, the same real constraint the Azure Naming Convention Generator tool enforces, so the output can’t already be invalid before it is even deployed.
Frequently asked questions
- Does this cover every possible configuration for these resources?
- No, each template covers the common, minimal configuration: a storage account with a SKU and kind, a virtual network with one default subnet, an App Service with its required plan. Real deployments often need more (private endpoints, diagnostic settings, custom subnets), which this scaffold is meant to be extended with.
- Why does the App Service option create two resources?
- An App Service (Microsoft.Web/sites) always runs on an App Service plan (Microsoft.Web/serverfarms), which defines the compute tier and SKU; Azure has no way to create one without the other, so the generated Bicep includes both, with the site referencing the plan’s resource ID.
- Are the API versions in the output current?
- They reflect stable, recent API versions for each resource type as of when this tool was built. Azure ships new API versions periodically; check the Bicep/ARM reference for a resource type if you want the latest available version.
- Is my input sent anywhere?
- No. The Bicep file is assembled entirely in your browser, no network request is made.
