Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a mild Windows bias. It references Windows-specific tools (such as web.config and iisnode) without providing equivalent Linux alternatives or explanations. In the Node.js section, iisnode settings are mentioned as a configuration point, but there is no mention of Linux-native process managers or configuration files. The auto-healing feature is described as being configured via web.config, which is a Windows/IIS-centric approach, with no mention of Linux equivalents. While there is a brief mention of PM2 for Node.js on Linux, the overall pattern is to present Windows tools and patterns first or exclusively.
Recommendations
- For features like auto-healing, provide Linux-native configuration instructions (e.g., using application settings, environment variables, or startup scripts) alongside or instead of web.config.
- When referencing iisnode or web.config for Node.js apps, also mention Linux-native process managers (such as PM2 or systemd) and their configuration approaches.
- Ensure that all examples and configuration guidance are available for both Windows and Linux App Service environments, and present them in parallel or with clear distinctions.
- Where possible, avoid assuming the use of Windows/IIS-specific tools as the default; clarify when guidance is platform-specific.
