Summary:
The documentation page exhibits a Windows-first bias. All file paths and folder references use Windows-style paths (e.g., D:\home), and there is no mention of equivalent Linux paths or behaviors. The only tool mentioned for checking disk usage is 'Azure Web Apps Disk Usage', with no Linux-native alternatives. The documentation refers to Kudu/SCM, which is more closely associated with Windows-based App Service environments, and does not provide Linux-specific instructions or examples. There are no Linux shell or command-line examples, and Linux-specific behaviors or caveats are not addressed, except for a brief note that the feature is not supported in Linux containers.
Recommendations:
- Add Linux-specific examples and clarify file paths for Linux-based App Service environments (e.g., /home/site/wwwroot instead of D:\home\site).
- Mention Linux-native tools or commands (such as 'du' or 'ls') for checking disk usage and folder sizes.
- Provide parity in instructions for both Windows and Linux App Service environments, including any differences in behavior or configuration.
- Explicitly state any differences in how local cache works (or does not work) on Linux App Service plans, and provide links to relevant Linux documentation.
- Where features are unsupported on Linux, suggest alternative approaches or workarounds for Linux users.
