Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Windows-specific deployment methods (notably Web Deploy) are described in detail, with YAML examples defaulting to 'windows-latest' agents for these scenarios. The FAQ and troubleshooting sections focus on Windows agent requirements for Web Deploy, and there is no equivalent Linux-based deployment method or troubleshooting guidance. The documentation references IIS and Windows-specific patterns (such as web.config and iisnode) without Linux alternatives. While some steps mention both Windows and Linux App Service types, the more advanced or nuanced examples and error messages are Windows-centric.
Recommendations:
- Provide Linux-native deployment examples for advanced scenarios, especially for tasks like Web Deploy, or clarify Linux alternatives (e.g., using zip deploy or FTP).
- In troubleshooting sections, include common Linux agent issues and their solutions, not just Windows-specific errors.
- When referencing Windows tools (like IIS, web.config, iisnode), also mention Linux equivalents or note when they are not applicable.
- Ensure that YAML examples alternate or equally represent both 'windows-latest' and 'ubuntu-latest' agents, especially in sections where the agent OS matters.
- Explicitly state when a feature is Windows-only and suggest best practices for Linux users.
- Add links to Linux-focused documentation or external resources where appropriate.
