Summary
The documentation provides parity for both Windows and Linux App Service apps, mentioning both platforms in backup content tables and referencing persistent storage for custom containers. However, there are subtle Windows biases: Windows path patterns (e.g., `%HOME%`, `D:\home\site\wwwroot`) are shown first or exclusively in some file instructions, and the use of Kudu DebugConsole (which is more familiar to Windows users) is referenced without mentioning Linux alternatives. FTP upload instructions use Windows-style paths. PowerShell is mentioned as a scripting option, but Linux shell scripting is not referenced. Overall, Linux users can complete all tasks, but Windows patterns are prioritized or assumed in some examples.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux path examples (e.g., `/home/site/wwwroot`) alongside Windows paths in file instructions and upload steps.
  • Clarify that Kudu DebugConsole is available for both Windows and Linux App Service apps, and mention Linux-native tools (e.g., SCP, SFTP) for file upload.
  • When referencing scripting, mention Bash or shell scripting as alternatives to PowerShell.
  • In tables and instructions, list Windows and Linux content equally (not Windows first).
