windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: examples and templates are predominantly focused on ASP.NET and .NET (traditionally Windows-centric stacks), Web Deploy (a Windows-only deployment method) is highlighted with explicit instructions and troubleshooting for Windows agents, and there is a lack of equivalent Linux-focused deployment examples or troubleshooting. In sections where OS-specific behavior matters (e.g., Web Deploy), Windows is presented as the default or only supported environment, with no Linux alternatives or parity guidance.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent Linux examples and troubleshooting for deployment scenarios, especially where Windows-only tools (like Web Deploy) are discussed.
- Include more examples for non-Windows stacks (e.g., Node.js, Java, Python) and clarify when steps or tools are OS-agnostic.
- When mentioning Windows-specific deployment methods, explicitly state the lack of Linux support and suggest alternative approaches for Linux agents (such as using ZIP deploy or FTP).
- Balance the order of presentation so that Linux and cross-platform options are mentioned alongside or before Windows-specific ones.
- Add troubleshooting sections for common Linux agent deployment issues, not just Windows/Web Deploy problems.
