Summary
The documentation provides examples and instructions for both Windows and Linux platforms, but there are several areas where Windows patterns, terminology, and tools are presented first or exclusively. For instance, file paths and directory references use Windows-style paths (e.g., `%HOME%`, `D:\home\site\wwwroot`), and the use of Kudu DebugConsole is described with Windows-centric paths. The 'Automate with scripts' section references Azure PowerShell alongside Azure CLI, but does not provide parity for Linux shell scripting. Additionally, FTP upload instructions and screenshots are Windows-oriented. Linux equivalents are mentioned but often after Windows, and some instructions (such as file upload locations) are not clearly mapped for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux-specific examples and file paths (e.g., `/home/site/wwwroot`) alongside Windows paths wherever file operations are described.
  • Clarify how to access Kudu DebugConsole and upload files for Linux-based App Service apps, including screenshots or instructions for Linux environments.
  • Ensure that CLI and scripting examples are not biased toward PowerShell; include Bash shell script examples for Linux users.
  • When referencing environment variables or directories, note the Linux equivalents and differences explicitly.
  • Where screenshots or instructions are Windows-centric, add Linux/macOS alternatives or clarify any differences.
