Summary
The documentation demonstrates a strong Windows bias. All configuration examples for backend web servers use Windows Server 2016 and IIS, with only PowerShell commands provided for setup. There are no Linux-based examples, nor are Linux tools or setup patterns mentioned. The use of Windows-specific tooling (IIS, PowerShell) is exclusive, and Windows is referenced first and solely in all backend configuration steps.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent examples using Linux-based VMs (e.g., Ubuntu, CentOS) with Apache or Nginx as the web server.
  • Provide Linux shell (bash) commands for web server setup and content creation alongside PowerShell examples.
  • Explicitly mention that both Windows and Linux VMs are supported as backend pools, and link to relevant Linux documentation.
  • Balance screenshots and walkthroughs to include Linux environments (e.g., Azure portal showing Linux VM backend pools).
  • Avoid language that implies Windows is the default or only supported option for backend web servers.
