Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows-first bias: logging types and features are described in detail for Windows before Linux, and several logging features (web server logging, detailed error messages, failed request tracing) are only available or described for Windows. Linux instructions are less detailed and sometimes missing. Windows-specific tools and file paths are mentioned (e.g., Log Parser, D:\home\LogFiles), while Linux equivalents are not provided.
Recommendations:
- Provide Linux parity by explicitly stating which logging features are available or unavailable for Linux, and offer alternative solutions or workarounds where features are Windows-only.
- Include Linux-specific examples, such as file paths (/home/LogFiles), and recommend cross-platform tools for log analysis instead of or in addition to Windows-only tools like Log Parser.
- Structure sections to present both Windows and Linux instructions in parallel, rather than focusing on Windows first and relegating Linux to later or shorter sections.
- Clarify limitations for Linux (e.g., lack of web server logging, detailed error messages, failed request tracing) and suggest best practices for Linux users.
- Where possible, provide code or configuration examples for popular Linux stacks (Node.js, Python, Java, etc.), not just .NET/ASP.NET.
