Summary
The documentation is heavily Windows-centric, with all examples, configuration patterns, and terminology tailored exclusively to Windows environments. Only Windows tools (PowerShell, MSI, Registry, RDP) are referenced, and there are no Linux equivalents or cross-platform considerations. The configuration script must be a PowerShell script named Install.ps1, and all customization scenarios (IIS, registry, ACLs, Windows features) are Windows-specific. Remote access is described solely in terms of RDP/Bastion, and troubleshooting/logging paths use Windows filesystem conventions. There is no mention of Linux support, examples, or alternative tooling.
Recommendations
- Clearly state in the introduction that Managed Instance on Azure App Service is Windows-only, if that is the case. If Linux support is planned or possible, provide equivalent Linux instructions and examples.
- For each configuration area (scripts, storage, registry, remote access), include Linux-specific guidance or explicitly note if not supported.
- If configuration scripts are required to be PowerShell, clarify that Bash or other scripting languages are not supported, and consider adding support for Bash scripts for Linux parity.
- For storage mounts, mention Linux mount patterns (e.g., mounting Azure Files via SMB/NFS on Linux) if/when supported.
- For remote access, mention SSH as the Linux equivalent to RDP/Bastion, or state that only RDP is supported.
- For registry keys, clarify that this is a Windows-only concept and provide Linux alternatives (such as environment variables or configuration files) if applicable.
- In FAQs and troubleshooting, provide Linux file paths and logging conventions if Linux is or will be supported.
- Review keywords and metadata to ensure Linux-related terms are included if cross-platform support is intended.
