Summary
The documentation page for Azure Cloud Services (extended support) WorkerRole schema shows evidence of Windows bias. It references Windows-centric concepts such as certificate store locations ('CurrentUser', 'LocalMachine'), certificate store names ('My', 'Root', etc.), and startup tasks using CMD/batch files in ANSI format. The examples and terminology assume a Windows environment, with no mention of Linux/macOS equivalents or guidance for cross-platform scenarios. Windows tools and patterns are referenced exclusively or before any Linux alternatives.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit guidance for Linux/macOS users, especially regarding certificate storage, startup tasks, and file formats.
  • Include Linux shell script examples (e.g., bash) alongside CMD/batch examples for startup tasks.
  • Clarify how environment variables, file paths, and certificate stores map to Linux/macOS environments.
  • Note any platform-specific limitations or requirements for WorkerRole schema elements.
  • Provide links or references to Linux/macOS documentation for Azure Cloud Services where available.
