Summary
The documentation demonstrates a subtle Windows bias by referencing Windows-centric tools and configuration patterns (such as web.config and iisnode) without providing equivalent Linux-native examples or alternatives. While there is a brief mention of Linux (regarding PM2 for Node.js), most configuration and troubleshooting guidance assumes a Windows environment or omits Linux-specific instructions.
Recommendations
- For features like auto-healing, provide Linux-native configuration examples (e.g., using app settings or startup scripts) alongside web.config instructions.
- When referencing iisnode or web.config, clarify their applicability to Windows-based App Service plans and provide alternatives for Linux-based plans (such as using process managers like PM2 or configuring environment variables).
- Include explicit Linux examples for diagnostics, scaling, and backup configuration, ensuring parity with Windows instructions.
- When mentioning tools or configuration files (like web.config), always note their platform specificity and link to Linux equivalents or documentation.
- Review all troubleshooting and best practice sections to ensure that both Windows and Linux workflows are equally represented and easy to follow.
