I just tried installing Umbraco 6 on Azure with WebMatrix and I'm ecstatic about how easy it was. What's the method to get v.7 installed on Azure? I don't have full VS and as I recall, VS 2010 Express didn't have enough funcionality to do it last I tried. I'm taking a look at VS 2012 Express now but any tips or advice that would shorten the cycle would be greatly appreciated. I'm just an 'Implementer' level Umbracian and haven't found any recent docs that discuss v.7, Azure and VS. Is there one of those I've missed perhaps?
Funny. In Azure I setup a website, a SQL server, a WS2012R2 and installed VS2013 on that, then installed Umbraco v.7 with that, and all from an old laptop running XP w/Chrome.

Looks like VS 2012 Express can handle the job. Still would love to hear from any pros who might have a tip for novices though.
Thanks again.
