Summary
The documentation page for Service Fabric application upgrade demonstrates notable Windows bias. PowerShell is used exclusively in the main example for upgrading applications and handling application parameters, with no equivalent CLI or Linux-native example. Windows-specific tools (PowerShell, http.sys) are referenced without mention of cross-platform alternatives. The 'Next steps' section prioritizes Visual Studio and PowerShell tutorials, both Windows-centric, with no Linux or cross-platform guidance. This creates friction for Linux/macOS users, who may not have access to PowerShell or Visual Studio.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent examples using Azure CLI or Service Fabric CLI (sfctl), which are cross-platform and supported on Linux/macOS.
  • Mention Linux/macOS-compatible tools and workflows for application upgrades.
  • Provide links to Linux/macOS-specific documentation or tutorials, if available.
  • Clarify which features are Windows-only and which are cross-platform, especially when referencing http.sys or PowerShell.
  • Ensure that examples and guidance are balanced, showing both Windows and Linux approaches where possible.
