Azure Front door has gone into GA:
https://azure.microsoft.com/en-gb/services/frontdoor/

Would be really good to have this supported by the provider.

There are probably resources you can merge together, not sure how these things are usually split out from terraforms perspective. This is basically based off the ARM script below.

I like the proposed breakout for it. At a glance it's similar to the load balancer which I like. The application gateway, which has everything in a single giant resource, is much less useful IMHO.

Any news on this? Front Door integration is highly appreciated!

Another thing to consider as part of this would be support for creating a Web Application Firewall as well. It is now generally available: https://azure.microsoft.com/en-us/updates/web-application-firewall-for-azure-front-door-service-available/.

@adback03 looks like something is being included for that:
