Summary
The documentation demonstrates several Windows biases: PowerShell is the only CLI example given for setting DNS names, and there are no Linux CLI (e.g., Bash, Azure CLI) equivalents. The ApplicationManifest.xml example implicitly assumes Visual Studio, a Windows-centric tool, and does not mention Linux development workflows. The limitations section notes Linux support is restricted, but the documentation does not provide Linux-specific guidance or parity for key tasks such as enabling DNS service or setting DNS names outside ARM templates. Windows tools and patterns are mentioned first or exclusively in several sections.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux CLI examples (e.g., Bash, Azure CLI, REST API) for tasks such as setting DNS names and enabling DNS service.
  • Clarify how Linux users can set DNS names for services, especially for non-containerized workloads (if/when supported).
  • Provide guidance for Linux development workflows, including alternatives to Visual Studio and ApplicationManifest.xml editing on Linux.
  • Explicitly state limitations for Linux and offer workarounds or links to Linux-specific documentation where possible.
  • Balance example ordering so that Linux and Windows approaches are presented equally.
