title: Debug azure app service locally?
body: <p>I try to create a mobile app base on the azure "App Service". I downloaded an example app (<a href="https://developer.xamarin.com/guides/xamarin-forms/web-services/consuming/azure/" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Todo App</a>) which was ready-to-go.</p>
  
  <p>Now I'm changing it to my needs. The problem is that I get an "internal server error"...</p>
  
  <p>Is there a way to debug the backend service (which runs on azure normally). The backend project can be run locally in Firefox, but that doesn't help me, because the behaviour on the server depends on the SQL database.</p>
  
  <p>Is it possible either to debug with Visual Studio directly on the azure server or run it locally, but simulate the same conditions as on the server (database, connection to a mobile client...)</p>
