Summary:
The documentation provides both Linux and Windows instructions for configuring data sources in Tomcat and JBoss on Azure App Service. However, the Windows section is more detailed, with explicit PowerShell scripts and Windows-specific file paths and tools (e.g., PowerShell, %HOME%, %LOCAL_EXPANDED%). The Windows approach is described with more step-by-step scripting, while the Linux section is more concise and assumes familiarity with shell scripting and Linux tools. In some cases, Windows-specific tools and patterns (like PowerShell and .cmd files) are emphasized, and the Windows instructions are presented before or in more detail than their Linux equivalents.
Recommendations:
- Ensure Linux and Windows instructions are presented with equal detail and clarity. For example, provide a full sample Linux shell script for the Tomcat server.xml transformation, similar to the detailed PowerShell script for Windows.
- Where possible, present Linux and Windows instructions in parallel, rather than giving one platform a more prominent or detailed section.
- Avoid assuming more technical familiarity for Linux users; provide step-by-step instructions and explanations for both platforms.
- Include Linux-native tools and patterns (e.g., bash scripts, systemd, cron) with the same prominence as Windows tools (e.g., PowerShell, .cmd files).
- Where Azure CLI commands are shown, ensure both Windows and Linux path conventions are included in examples.
- Consider providing a summary table or section that highlights the differences and similarities between Linux and Windows approaches, to help users quickly find the relevant instructions for their platform.
