Summary
The documentation page exhibits several signs of Windows bias. Windows-specific deployment methods (Web Deploy) are described in detail, with explicit instructions and error messages about Windows agents. Examples for Web Deploy only use Windows agents, and troubleshooting focuses on Windows scenarios. The use of IIS and web.config for Node.js is highlighted, and Windows agent selection is often mentioned before Linux. There are no Linux equivalents or parity for Web Deploy, and Linux deployment patterns (such as SSH, rsync, or container-based workflows) are not discussed. The documentation assumes familiarity with Windows tools and patterns, and Linux-specific deployment nuances are underrepresented.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux-specific deployment examples, especially for scenarios where Windows-only tools (like Web Deploy) are unavailable.
- Explicitly mention alternative deployment methods for Linux agents, such as ZIP deploy, container deploy, or FTP.
- Clarify which tasks and deployment methods are cross-platform and which are Windows-only, ideally in a comparison table.
- Add troubleshooting and FAQ entries for common Linux agent issues, not just Windows/Web Deploy problems.
- Ensure that agent selection instructions (ubuntu-latest, windows-latest) are presented with equal prominence and context.
- Include examples for popular Linux frameworks and deployment patterns (e.g., Python, Node.js, Java) using Linux agents.
- Avoid assuming IIS/web.config patterns for Node.js and clarify Linux equivalents (e.g., using PM2, Nginx, or Apache).
