🚀 Django to Azure App Service - Production Deployment Guide

Complete guide for deploying Django applications to Azure App Service (Linux) with static files, WhiteNoise, Oryx builds, and GitHub Actions CI/CD. Solves common GLIBC compatibility and static file serving issues.

Author's Note: After spending hours debugging GLIBC incompatibilities and static file issues, I created this guide so you don't have to. This approach works with Django 4.x/5.x on Azure App Service.
