Summary:
The documentation generally provides parity between Linux and Windows, but there are subtle signs of Windows bias. In several sections, Windows examples or instructions are presented before Linux equivalents (windows_first). Some advanced troubleshooting and process management instructions for Windows rely on Kudu/Advanced Tools, which are Windows-specific (windows_tools). There are also areas where PowerShell or Windows-centric tools are referenced more prominently (powershell_heavy). In a few cases, Linux-specific details are less comprehensive or are missing compared to Windows (missing_linux_example).
Recommendations:
- Ensure that Linux and Windows instructions are always presented in parallel, or alternate which comes first to avoid implicit prioritization.
- Where Windows-specific tools (like Kudu/Advanced Tools) are referenced, provide equivalent Linux-native instructions or clarify if a feature is not available.
- Avoid using PowerShell or Windows command-line tools as the default or only example; always provide Bash/Azure CLI/Linux-native equivalents.
- Audit all sections for completeness of Linux examples, especially for advanced scenarios (e.g., process management, log analysis, deployment troubleshooting).
- Highlight Linux-specific troubleshooting and customization options, such as using SSH, Linux package managers, and native file paths.
- Where a feature is only available on one platform, clearly state this and provide workarounds or alternatives for the other platform.
