Summary:
The documentation page exhibits a Windows-first bias: logging features and instructions for Windows apps are presented in greater detail and before Linux equivalents. Several logging types (web server logging, detailed error messages, failed request tracing) are described as Windows-only, with no Linux alternatives or workarounds provided. Example code and tool recommendations (such as Log Parser and references to IIS/W3C log formats) are Windows-centric. Linux logging instructions are brief and lack parity in detail or features.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent Linux/container logging features or clearly document alternatives/workarounds for Linux users.
- Present Linux and Windows instructions in parallel sections or tables to avoid Windows-first ordering.
- Include Linux-specific examples and code snippets (e.g., using Python logging, Node.js logging, or Linux command-line tools to access logs).
- Mention cross-platform tools for log analysis instead of or alongside Windows-only tools like Log Parser.
- Clarify any feature gaps for Linux and suggest best practices or third-party solutions where Azure App Service does not provide parity.
