Summary
The documentation page for the Service Fabric application lifecycle demonstrates a notable Windows bias. PowerShell cmdlets are referenced extensively and often listed before or alongside REST and .NET API methods, with no mention of Linux-native CLI equivalents (such as sfctl or Azure CLI) in the main lifecycle sections. The workflow examples and automation guidance rely heavily on PowerShell, which is primarily a Windows tool, and there is little to no explicit guidance for Linux/macOS users, despite Service Fabric supporting cross-platform clusters and management.
Recommendations
  • Include Linux/macOS-friendly command-line examples using sfctl and Azure CLI in all lifecycle phases (deploy, upgrade, remove, etc.), not just in the introductory links.
  • Where PowerShell cmdlets are mentioned, provide equivalent sfctl or Azure CLI commands side-by-side.
  • Add explicit notes or sections for Linux/macOS users, clarifying any differences or limitations in tooling or workflow.
  • Ensure automation examples (such as cleanup policies) are shown using cross-platform tools/scripts, not just PowerShell.
  • Review and update links to point to cross-platform documentation where available.
