Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows-first bias in several areas. Windows-specific features and tools (such as IIS Application Initialization and .NET Core stdout logging) are discussed in detail, with Linux equivalents mentioned only briefly or as afterthoughts. Linux guidance is often limited to a single sentence or setting, lacking the depth and examples provided for Windows. There are no Linux-specific code samples or detailed configuration instructions, and Windows terminology and modules are referenced without parallel Linux explanations.
Recommendations:
- Provide equally detailed Linux examples and explanations alongside Windows ones, especially for features like application initialization and logging.
- Include Linux-specific tools, modules, and configuration patterns (e.g., NGINX/Apache warm-up, systemd service readiness, Linux logging best practices) where relevant.
- When referencing Windows features (such as IIS Application Initialization), immediately follow with the Linux equivalent, including step-by-step instructions or links to relevant documentation.
- Add sample configuration snippets or code for Linux environments, not just mention environment variables.
- Ensure that all features and troubleshooting steps are described for both platforms, or clearly state if a feature is Windows-only and suggest alternatives for Linux.
