Summary:
The documentation page exhibits several signs of Windows bias. It references Windows-specific tools (such as IIS diagnostics, Procdump, and PowerShell), and links to resources with 'Windows' in the title. Examples and instructions for troubleshooting and diagnostics (e.g., enabling .NET Profiler, using Kudu console) are focused on Windows environments, with no mention of Linux equivalents or alternatives. PowerShell is suggested for app management, but Bash/CLI alternatives are not presented. There are no examples or guidance for Linux-based App Service environments, which are common in Azure.
Recommendations:
- Add explicit instructions and examples for Linux-based App Service environments, including how to enable diagnostics, collect logs, and troubleshoot performance issues.
- Include Bash/Azure CLI commands alongside PowerShell for managing and restarting apps.
- Reference Linux-compatible tools for memory dumps and diagnostics (e.g., gcore, strace, lsof), and explain how to use them in App Service on Linux.
- Clarify which features and extensions (such as Application Insights Profiler, Kudu console) are available or behave differently on Linux, and provide links to Linux-specific documentation.
- Avoid using 'Windows' in resource titles or links unless the content is truly Windows-only; provide parity links for Linux where possible.
- Ensure that troubleshooting steps and mitigation strategies are presented for both Windows and Linux environments, or clearly indicate any platform limitations.
