Summary:
The documentation provides both Linux and Windows deployment paths, but there are subtle biases favoring Windows. In Visual Studio Code deployment, the Windows instructions are more detailed and include extra steps (such as web.config generation) that are not paralleled for Linux. Windows-specific tools and patterns (like web.config, Application Insights, and certain App Service settings) are mentioned without Linux equivalents or context. The CLI and portal sections default to Linux but still reference Windows-specific options. There is also a lack of explicit Linux troubleshooting or configuration guidance where Windows gets extra notes.
Recommendations:
- Ensure Linux and Windows instructions are equally detailed, especially in Visual Studio Code deployment steps.
- When mentioning Windows-specific concepts (e.g., web.config, Application Insights), provide Linux equivalents or clarify that they are not needed on Linux.
- Add troubleshooting tips and notes for Linux deployments, similar to the extra guidance given for Windows.
- Avoid presenting Windows-specific steps or tools before Linux ones unless Linux is the default/recommended path.
- Where possible, use cross-platform terminology and avoid assuming Visual Studio Code or Azure App Service behaviors are identical across OSesβcall out differences explicitly.
- Include explicit examples or notes for common Linux shell environments (bash, zsh) when providing command-line instructions.
