Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing PowerShell and DOS commands as the primary or only command-line examples, mentioning Windows-specific tools (ProcDump, Sysinternals), and omitting equivalent Linux tooling or shell examples. The Kudu debug console is described in terms of PowerShell and DOS commands, with no mention of Bash or Linux commands. The guidance for managing and restarting the app highlights Azure PowerShell but does not mention Azure CLI or Linux-native approaches.
Recommendations
  • Include examples and instructions for using Bash or Linux shell commands in the Kudu debug console, alongside PowerShell and DOS.
  • Mention and provide guidance for Linux-native diagnostic tools (e.g., gcore, strace, lsof) as alternatives to ProcDump for memory dumps and troubleshooting.
  • Reference Azure CLI commands for app management and restarting, not just Azure PowerShell, to ensure parity for Linux and cross-platform users.
  • When listing command-line options or tools, present cross-platform options together or in parallel sections, rather than defaulting to Windows-first.
  • Clarify that Kudu supports both Windows and Linux containers, and highlight any differences in available tools or shell environments.
