Summary:
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows-based Node.js applications running on Azure App Service, specifically with iisnode. All configuration, troubleshooting, and examples are tailored to Windows environments, referencing Windows-specific tools (e.g., iisnode, web.config, named pipes, Win32 error codes, Kudu CMD/PowerShell). There are no Linux or cross-platform equivalents or examples provided, and Linux troubleshooting or deployment patterns are not mentioned.
Recommendations:
- Add a parallel section or separate guide for Node.js on Azure App Service Linux, covering best practices, configuration, and troubleshooting.
- Provide Linux-specific examples for profiling, debugging, and monitoring (e.g., using pm2, systemd, Linux file paths, and logs).
- Reference Linux equivalents for configuration (e.g., environment variables, process managers) and troubleshooting (e.g., using SSH, Linux shell, log locations).
- Avoid assuming the presence of Windows-only tools (like iisnode, web.config, Win32 error codes) and instead offer cross-platform or Linux-native alternatives.
- When presenting examples or recommendations, either provide both Windows and Linux versions or clearly indicate which platform each applies to, with links to the other.
