Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: Windows-specific paths and environment variables (e.g., %HOME%, D:\home\site\wwwroot) are used exclusively or before Linux equivalents; file upload instructions and examples reference Windows-style paths; the Kudu DebugConsole and FTP instructions are described in a Windows-centric manner; and PowerShell is mentioned as a scripting option alongside Azure CLI, but no Linux shell or Bash scripting examples are provided. Linux paths and conventions are only mentioned in passing, and there are no explicit Linux command-line or file system examples.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux-specific examples and instructions alongside Windows ones, including Linux file paths (e.g., /home/site/wwwroot) and environment variables.
  • When referencing file uploads or directory locations, include both Windows and Linux paths, or clarify the differences for each OS.
  • Include Bash or shell scripting examples in addition to PowerShell, and mention Linux-native tools where appropriate.
  • Ensure that screenshots and walkthroughs are not exclusively from Windows environments; add Linux-based screenshots or notes.
  • Where Kudu DebugConsole or FTP is referenced, clarify how Linux users can access or use these tools, including command-line alternatives.
  • In tables and lists, present Windows and Linux information in parallel, rather than Windows-first or Windows-only.
