Summary
The documentation provides deployment examples for multiple platforms. However, the ASP.NET (classic) example is the only one that exclusively uses Windows runners and Windows-specific tools (NuGet, MSBuild), and it appears before the Linux/Ubuntu-based .NET Core example. All other language examples use Ubuntu runners and cross-platform tools. This ordering and tooling choice introduces a subtle Windows bias, especially for .NET developers.
Recommendations
- Provide a Linux/Ubuntu-based example for ASP.NET (classic) if possible, or clarify that Windows is required and explain why.
- Reorder the .NET Core and ASP.NET tabs so that the cross-platform .NET Core example appears first, emphasizing modern, cross-platform development.
- Where Windows-specific tools are required, explicitly state the reason and, if possible, suggest cross-platform alternatives or workarounds.
- Ensure parity in runner environments and tooling across all language examples to avoid implying Windows is the default or preferred environment.
