Summary
The documentation page for Service Fabric application upgrades exhibits a notable Windows bias. PowerShell is the only command-line example provided, and all upgrade-related tooling references (such as Start-ServiceFabricApplicationUpgrade and Update-ServiceFabricService) are PowerShell cmdlets. There are no examples or instructions for Linux/macOS users (e.g., using sfctl or REST APIs), and Windows-specific tools (like http.sys) are referenced without Linux equivalents. The 'Next steps' section also prioritizes Visual Studio and PowerShell, both Windows-centric tools, with no mention of cross-platform alternatives.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent examples using sfctl (the cross-platform Service Fabric CLI) for Linux/macOS users wherever PowerShell examples are shown.
  • Mention and link to REST API documentation for application upgrades as a platform-agnostic alternative.
  • Clarify when features or limitations (such as http.sys or certificate handling) are Windows-specific, and provide Linux/macOS guidance if applicable.
  • In the 'Next steps' section, include tutorials or references for upgrading applications using sfctl or REST APIs.
  • Where possible, present cross-platform examples first or in parallel with Windows/PowerShell examples.
