Summary
The documentation page covers environment variables and app settings for Azure App Service, supporting both Windows and Linux platforms. However, there are several instances where Windows-specific paths, tools, and terminology are presented first or exclusively. Windows paths (e.g., D:\home) are often shown before Linux equivalents, and Windows-specific tools like Web Deploy/MSDeploy and IIS are referenced without always providing Linux alternatives. Some sections (such as Kudu build automation) focus heavily on Windows, with Linux (Oryx) relegated to a separate tab. Examples and explanations frequently default to Windows conventions, creating friction for Linux/macOS users.
Recommendations
- Ensure all environment variable descriptions provide both Windows and Linux path examples, with Linux shown equally or first where appropriate.
- Where Windows tools (e.g., Web Deploy/MSDeploy, IIS, site extensions) are mentioned, explicitly note Linux alternatives or limitations.
- For build automation, provide equal detail for Oryx (Linux) as for Kudu (Windows), including environment variables and usage examples.
- Avoid defaulting to Windows terminology (e.g., %HOME%, D:\home) in general explanations; use platform-neutral language or show Linux equivalents alongside.
- Add Linux/macOS-specific troubleshooting tips and examples where Windows-specific guidance is given.
