Answer 1

Hope you are having a great day!

To safely remove one of the static web apps (in this case, "ashy ocean") and associated resources, you can follow these steps:

1. Delete Workflow in GitHub: In your GitHub repository, if you have a workflow defined for the "ashy ocean" static web app, you should delete that workflow file. Basically a yaml file of ashy ocean under workflows
2. Delete Static Web App in Azure: Follow these steps to delete the corresponding static web app in Azure:
   • Azure Portal:

        - Go to the Azure portal (**[https://portal.azure.com/](https://portal.azure.com/)**).
     
              - In the left-hand menu, click on "Resource groups" and select the appropriate resource group containing your static web apps.
     
                    - Find and click on the "ashy ocean" static web app.
     
                          - In the web app's overview page, scroll down to the "Settings" section and click on "Delete."
     
                                - Follow the prompts to confirm the deletion.
     

3. If you've configured custom domains or DNS records for this static web app in Azure and you want to remove those custom domains or DNS records, you can follow these steps:
   1. Remove Custom Domains from Azure Static Web App:

        - Go to the Azure portal (**[https://portal.azure.com/](https://portal.azure.com/)**).
      
              - Find and click on the static web app that you want to remove the custom domains from.
      
                    - In the left-hand menu, under the "Settings" section, click on "Custom domains".
      
                          - You will see a list of custom domains associated with the static web app.
      
                                - Select the custom domain you want to remove and click the "Delete" button (trash can icon) for that domain.
      
                                      - Confirm the deletion.
      

      1. Remove DNS Records from Azure DNS(Public) Zone (If Applicable): If you've set up DNS records directly in Azure DNS for the custom domain, you'll need to remove those records:

              - Go to the Azure portal (**[https://portal.azure.com/](https://portal.azure.com/)**).
         
                    - Search for and select "DNS zones" in the search bar.
         
                          - Select the DNS zone associated with the custom domain you want to remove.
         
                                - In the left-hand menu, click on "DNS records sets".
         
                                      - Find and select the DNS record set you want to remove (e.g., A record, CNAME record).
         
                                            - In the record set's overview page, click the "Delete" button (trash can icon).
         
                                                  - Confirm the deletion.
         

By performing all these steps you can make sure that static web app gets successfully deleted from azure along with its dependencies and also from Git
