I replaced the manual Cosmos DB setup with 3 CLI commands — saved 2 days.

Most .NET developers still struggle with setting up cloud databases.

I watched a senior engineer spend two days manually configuring Cosmos DB through the portal.

Then I discovered the Azure Developer CLI approach.

Three commands. Five minutes. Running a web app with real data.

azd auth login → azd init --template cosmos-db-nosql-dotnet-quickstart → azd up

Boom. Containerized app, provisioned database, and authentication handled.

What's your fastest database setup story?
