Summary
The documentation page covers environment variables and app settings for Azure App Service across both Windows and Linux platforms. However, there is a noticeable Windows bias: Windows-specific examples (such as directory paths like `D:\home`), tools (Kudu, Web Deploy/MSDeploy), and terminology (IIS, applicationHost.config) are often mentioned first or exclusively. Some settings and explanations default to Windows conventions, with Linux alternatives appearing later or in less detail. Several environment variables and features are described primarily in the context of Windows, with Linux equivalents sometimes missing or less emphasized.
Recommendations
- Ensure Linux examples (e.g., `/home` paths, Linux deployment tools) are presented alongside Windows examples, not just as secondary notes.
- Where Windows tools (e.g., Web Deploy/MSDeploy, Kudu) are discussed, provide clear Linux alternatives (e.g., Oryx, ZIP deploy, FTP, Git) and link to relevant Linux documentation.
- When describing environment variables, show both Windows and Linux values/formats in tables and explanations.
- Avoid defaulting to Windows terminology (e.g., 'applicationHost.config', 'D:\home') without also referencing Linux equivalents.
- Add Linux/macOS-specific troubleshooting tips and configuration notes where Windows-specific guidance is given.
