Summary
The documentation demonstrates several forms of Windows bias. Windows instructions and tools (e.g., IISNode, web.config, PowerShell) are often mentioned first or exclusively, with Linux equivalents sometimes relegated to later sections or missing entirely. Some troubleshooting and configuration steps are detailed for Windows but only briefly referenced or omitted for Linux. PowerShell is referenced for instrumentation, but Bash or Linux-native alternatives are not provided. Windows-specific tools and patterns (IISNode, web.config) are described in detail, while Linux alternatives (e.g., Nginx, .htaccess, or container startup scripts) are not covered.
Recommendations
  • Ensure that Linux instructions/examples are presented alongside or before Windows equivalents, especially in introductory and troubleshooting sections.
  • Provide Linux-native alternatives for all Windows-specific tools and patterns (e.g., discuss Nginx or container startup scripts in place of IISNode/web.config).
  • Include Bash or Azure CLI examples for instrumentation and configuration tasks where PowerShell is referenced.
  • Expand troubleshooting guidance for Linux deployments to match the detail provided for Windows (e.g., common errors, configuration file issues).
  • Add explicit parity checks to ensure every Windows example or tool has a Linux counterpart, and vice versa.
