Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways. Windows is frequently mentioned first in tables and plan descriptions, and Windows-specific features (such as PowerShell modules and the full .NET Framework) are highlighted as primary use cases for the Consumption plan. There is a lack of Linux-specific examples or tooling references, and Linux support is often described in terms of limitations or retirement (e.g., Linux Consumption plan being retired), rather than as a first-class option. Windows deployment and features are described in more detail, while Linux options are sometimes referenced only in passing or with caveats.
Recommendations
  • Present Linux and Windows options in parallel, rather than listing Windows first or as the default.
  • Include Linux-specific examples, tools, and scenarios (e.g., Bash, Linux-native deployment workflows, Python on Linux).
  • Avoid framing Linux support primarily in terms of limitations or retirement; highlight Linux strengths and supported scenarios.
  • Where Windows-specific features (such as PowerShell modules) are mentioned, also provide equivalent Linux-native alternatives or note cross-platform options.
  • Ensure parity in technical detail and guidance for both Linux and Windows hosting plans, including container support and networking features.
