Summary
The documentation provides both Windows and Linux instructions for most core tasks, but Windows examples and tooling (IISNode, web.config, PowerShell) are often mentioned first or exclusively. Some sections, such as Application Insights instrumentation, reference PowerShell for setup without a Linux CLI or Bash equivalent. Troubleshooting and error messages focus on Windows-specific files (web.config), while Linux equivalents are referenced only via includes. The overall structure and order tend to prioritize Windows scenarios, with Linux-specific guidance sometimes relegated to later sections or pivots.
Recommendations
  • Ensure Linux/Bash equivalents are provided for all PowerShell or Windows-specific instructions, especially for instrumentation and troubleshooting.
  • Present Windows and Linux examples in parallel, or alternate which platform appears first in each section to avoid implicit prioritization.
  • Expand troubleshooting guidance for Linux, including common errors and configuration files (e.g., nginx.conf, robots.txt) analogous to web.config.
  • Where Windows tools (IISNode, web.config) are discussed, provide clear Linux alternatives or explanations.
  • Review all included links and references to ensure Linux users have direct access to relevant resources, not just Windows-centric samples.
