Summary
The documentation provides a broad overview of Azure Service Fabric, covering both Windows and Linux support. However, there is a notable Windows bias: Windows-specific tools (e.g., PowerShell, Visual Studio) are mentioned before or more prominently than Linux equivalents, and some examples (such as standalone cluster creation and scaling) are Windows-only. The documentation often refers to Windows services and executables (FabricHost.exe, etc.) without clarifying Linux equivalents or differences. Linux support is acknowledged, but Linux-specific instructions, examples, and tooling are less visible or missing in key lifecycle and management sections.
Recommendations
  • Ensure Linux equivalents are mentioned alongside Windows tools (e.g., highlight sfctl CLI and bash scripting where PowerShell is referenced).
  • Provide explicit Linux examples for cluster creation, scaling, and management, or clearly state limitations where Linux support is not available.
  • When describing node services and executables, clarify differences between Windows and Linux implementations.
  • Balance the order of presentation so Linux options are not consistently listed after Windows ones.
  • Add links to Linux-specific quickstarts, tutorials, and troubleshooting guides where available.
