In Azure, where does the cscfg file come from?

So in Azure, I created a cloud service, and now I want to upload a deployment. It asks for a package (sure, that's easy, a zip file) and a configuration file (.cscfg file). I understand that the .cscfg file is supposed to define the roles, network configuration, etc.

But I don't have a cscfg file. Where are they supposed to originate? Do I have to write one by hand? The documentation for that is substandard at best. Is there any way to generate one? Or do a deployment somehow that bypasses this step? My approach must be wrong on some level (unless I really do have to write one by hand, but I somehow doubt that is a typical case).

You can either rely on Visual Studio to create it or manually create with command line tools.

You can also create using msbuild:
