Summary
The documentation page exhibits a mild Windows bias. Windows terminology and paths (e.g., %HOME%, D:\home\site\wwwroot) are used as defaults, and Windows-specific tools like Kudu DebugConsole and FTP are referenced without mentioning Linux alternatives. Examples and instructions for file operations (e.g., creating _backup.filter) use Windows paths and tools first, with Linux equivalents only briefly referenced or omitted. Automation mentions Azure PowerShell alongside Azure CLI, but CLI examples are cross-platform. The documentation does not provide explicit Linux/macOS file management examples or clarify platform differences for accessing app files.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux/macOS equivalents for file paths (e.g., /home/site/wwwroot) alongside Windows paths in all examples.
  • Include instructions for creating and uploading _backup.filter using Linux/macOS tools (e.g., SCP, SFTP, Linux shell commands) and clarify how to access Kudu/FTP from non-Windows systems.
  • Mention that Azure CLI commands are cross-platform and highlight any OS-specific considerations.
  • Avoid using Windows paths and terminology as the default; present both Windows and Linux examples side by side.
  • Clarify any differences in app file system structure or access methods between Windows and Linux App Service plans.
