Summary
The documentation demonstrates a notable Windows bias. Windows-specific tools (PowerShell, Kudu, App Service Editor) are referenced and exemplified throughout, often before or instead of Linux alternatives. Many features and migration steps are described as Windows-only, with Linux support either missing, deprecated, or explicitly excluded. Examples for PowerShell are provided, but Linux shell or bash equivalents are not. Several portal features and in-portal editors are available only for Windows, and Linux users are frequently directed to local development or told that features are unavailable.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux shell (bash) equivalents for all PowerShell examples, especially for common tasks like managing app settings and FTPS credentials.
  • Clearly indicate feature parity and limitations for Linux, and update documentation as Linux support evolves.
  • Where features are Windows-only, suggest Linux alternatives or workarounds, such as using Azure CLI, REST API, or local development tools.
  • Include explicit Linux-focused sections or tabs for procedures, especially for plan migration, extension installation, and portal features.
  • Highlight any upcoming changes to Linux support (such as planned retirement of Linux Consumption plan) at the top of the page.
  • Ensure screenshots and step-by-step instructions are available for both Windows and Linux environments where applicable.
