Azure Functions Core Tools
The Azure Functions Core Tools provide a local development experience for creating, developing, testing, running, and debugging Azure Functions.
The Azure Functions Core Tools are a set of command-line tools that you can use to develop and test Azure Functions on your local computer.
- v1 (v1.x branch): Requires .NET 4.7.1 Windows Only
- v2 (dev branch): Self-contained cross-platform package
- v3: (v3.x branch): Self-contained cross-platform package
- v4: (v4.x branch): Self-contained cross-platform package (recommended)
Installing on Windows
winget install Microsoft.AzureFunctionsCoreTools
The Core Tools are packaged as a single command-line utility named func. If you run func from the command line without any other commands, it will display version information and a usage guide.

Local development vs. Azure portal development
The Azure portal has a powerful functions editor experience. In most cases, it doesn’t support modifying functions that you develop locally. Once you start using a local development workflow based on Core Tools, you can’t use the Azure portal to make changes to your functions.
Function apps and functions projects
Every function published to Azure belongs to a function app, which is a collection of one or more functions that Azure publishes together into the same environment. All of the functions in a function app share a common set of configuration values. Build them all for the same language runtime. A function app is an Azure resource that can be configured and managed independently.
When you develop functions locally, you work within a functions project. The project is a folder that contains the code and configuration files that define your functions. A functions project on your computer is equivalent to a function app in Azure, and can contain multiple functions that use the same language runtime.
Create a new functions project with func init
สร้าง functions project ชื่อ FunctionCS2207
> mkdir FunctionCS2207 > cd .\FunctionCS2207\
To create a new functions project, run func init on the command line.
> func init Use the up/down arrow keys to select a worker runtime: dotnet dotnet (isolated process) node python powershell custom > func init Use the up/down arrow keys to select a worker runtime:dotnet Use the up/down arrow keys to select a language: c# f# > func init Use the up/down arrow keys to select a worker runtime:dotnet Use the up/down arrow keys to select a language:c# Writing C:\Project\FunctionCS2207\.vscode\extensions.json
func init will ask you which language runtime you’d like to use for the app and tailor the project folder’s contents appropriately.

When you create a new functions project, the files included in the project folder depend on the language runtime you select. Regardless of the runtime you choose, the two most critical project files are always present:
- host.json stores runtime configuration values, such as logging options, for the function app. The settings stored in this file are used both when running functions locally and in Azure.
- local.settings.json stores configuration values that only apply to the function app when it’s run locally with the Core Tools. This file contains two kinds of settings:
- Local runtime settings: Used to configure the local functions runtime itself.
- Custom application settings: You add and configure them based on your app’s needs. All the functions in the app can access and use them.

Functions projects that func init generates don’t have any functions in them. Let’s find out how to add one.
Create a new function with func new
Each individual function in a project requires code and a configuration to define its behavior. Running func new in a functions project folder will create a new function and all the files you need to get started developing.

? "This HTTP triggered function executed successfully. Pass a name in the query string or in the request body for a personalized response."
: $"Hello, {name}. This HTTP triggered function executed successfully.";
return new OkObjectResult(responseMessage);
}
}
}
Run functions locally
Functions aren’t programs that can be run on their own: they must be hosted. The function host is what powers everything outside of your function code: it loads the configuration, listens for triggers and HTTP requests, starts the worker process for the language your functions are written in, writes log output, and more. In Azure, function apps run the function host automatically when they start.
You can use the Core Tools to run your own instance of the functions host and try out your functions locally before you publish them. By running your functions before publishing them, you can make sure your configuration and code loads correctly and test out your functions by making real HTTP calls to them without the need for Azure resources.
To start the functions host locally, run func start from a functions project folder. At the end of the output, the Core Tools will display local URLs you can use to call each of your functions. While the host is running, you can use any tools or libraries that make HTTP calls, like curl, to interact with your functions. The Core Tools will write any log output produced by the host to the terminal in real time.
