Summary
The documentation demonstrates a mild Windows bias. Windows instructions and tools (such as IISNode and web.config) are often presented first or exclusively, with Linux alternatives appearing later or in separate sections. PowerShell is referenced for instrumentation, while Linux-specific troubleshooting and configuration details are less prominent or omitted. Some examples, such as remote debugging and Application Insights instrumentation, mention Windows/PowerShell approaches before Linux equivalents, and certain Windows-specific tools (IISNode, web.config) are described in detail, whereas Linux alternatives are less emphasized.
Recommendations
  • Ensure Linux instructions/examples are presented alongside Windows ones, or alternate which platform is shown first in each section.
  • Provide Linux equivalents for all Windows-specific tools and configuration files (e.g., explain how to handle startup configuration and error troubleshooting in Linux containers, not just web.config for Windows).
  • Include Linux-specific troubleshooting scenarios and solutions, similar to the detailed Windows troubleshooting section.
  • Add parity for instrumentation and monitoring instructions (e.g., show how to enable Application Insights via CLI or portal for Linux, not just PowerShell for Windows).
  • Where PowerShell is referenced, also provide Bash or Azure CLI examples for Linux users.
  • Expand on Linux container-specific features, such as startup scripts, environment variable management, and logging, to match the detail given to Windows/IISNode.
