Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing Windows-specific environment variables (e.g., %HOME%\site), mentioning Kudu (which is more familiar to Windows users), and providing links to PowerShell-based guidance (e.g., 'Azure App Service App Cloning Using PowerShell') as the only explicit next step. References to Azure CLI are present but not emphasized or exemplified, and there are no Linux-specific instructions, examples, or considerations. The use of Windows-style paths and terminology (e.g., 'FTP credentials', '%HOME%\site') further reinforces the Windows-centric approach.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Linux examples and instructions, including bash/CLI commands and Linux environment variable syntax (e.g., $HOME/site).
  • Provide parity in tooling references: offer both PowerShell and Azure CLI examples for all operations, and link to both in 'Next steps'.
  • Clarify that Kudu and FTP are cross-platform, and provide guidance for Linux-based workflows (e.g., using SCP, SFTP, or rsync for file transfers).
  • Avoid Windows-centric terminology and paths; use platform-neutral language or provide both Windows and Linux equivalents.
  • Include troubleshooting or configuration notes for Linux-based App Service plans, such as file system permissions, case sensitivity, and deployment methods.
