Summary
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. While it covers both Azure CLI (cross-platform) and Azure PowerShell (Windows-centric), certain features and examples are described as available only for Windows apps, with no Linux equivalents or workarounds provided. Windows-specific tools, patterns, and terminology (such as IIS handler mappings, virtual directories, and references to D:\home paths) are mentioned exclusively or before Linux alternatives. Some sections (e.g., default documents, handler mappings, path mappings) are explicitly limited to Windows, and this is not always accompanied by Linux guidance. PowerShell examples are extensive, and some bulk operations are noted as unavailable in PowerShell, but Linux-specific scripting or alternatives are not discussed.
Recommendations
  • For every Windows-only feature (e.g., default documents, handler mappings, virtual directories), explicitly state the Linux equivalent or clarify if there is none, and provide recommended Linux-native approaches or workarounds.
  • Where PowerShell is used for scripting, provide equivalent Bash or shell script examples for Linux users, especially for bulk operations.
  • When referencing file paths (e.g., D:\home), also mention the Linux file system structure or container mount points as appropriate.
  • If a feature is not available on Linux, suggest alternative best practices or link to relevant Linux/container documentation.
  • Ensure that cross-platform tools (like Azure CLI) are presented first or equally, and highlight any differences in usage or behavior between Windows and Linux App Service plans.
  • Add a summary table or section that clearly lists which configuration features are supported on Windows, Linux, or both, to help users quickly identify platform limitations.
