Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a mild Windows bias, primarily by referencing Windows-specific tools (such as web.config and iisnode) without providing equivalent Linux alternatives or examples. While there is a brief mention of Linux (in the Node.js/PM2 section), most configuration and troubleshooting guidance assumes a Windows environment or omits Linux-specific instructions.
Recommendations:
- For features like auto-healing, provide Linux-specific configuration guidance (e.g., how to configure auto-healing for Linux-based App Service, or note if it's not available).
- When referencing web.config or iisnode, clarify their applicability (Windows only), and provide Linux equivalents or alternative approaches (e.g., app settings, startup scripts, or configuration files used in Linux containers).
- Ensure that all examples (such as memory dump, process recycling, or diagnostics) include both Windows and Linux approaches, or explicitly state platform limitations.
- In sections discussing Node.js, expand on Linux-native process management and monitoring tools (e.g., systemd, supervisord) alongside PM2.
- Audit the documentation for other Windows-centric terminology or features, and add Linux parity or clear notes about platform differences.
