Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: Windows-based deployment methods (such as Web Deploy) are featured with explicit instructions and troubleshooting, while Linux equivalents are not discussed or are only mentioned in passing. Examples and templates often default to ASP.NET (a Windows-centric technology), and when deployment agent OS is specified, 'windows-latest' is highlighted for Web Deploy scenarios. There is little to no coverage of Linux-native deployment tools or troubleshooting for Linux agents, and the documentation assumes familiarity with Windows deployment patterns.
Recommendations
- Provide parallel Linux-based deployment examples, especially for scenarios where Windows-specific tools (like Web Deploy) are discussed.
- When introducing deployment templates or tasks, include examples for both Windows and Linux app types, and clarify any differences in configuration or prerequisites.
- Highlight Linux agent compatibility and limitations for each deployment method, and offer troubleshooting steps for Linux agents where relevant.
- Balance the focus on ASP.NET with examples for other stacks (Node.js, Python, Java) and clarify when instructions are Windows-specific.
- Reference Linux-native deployment tools or patterns (such as rsync, SCP, or container-based deployments) where appropriate.
- In FAQ and troubleshooting sections, address common issues for both Windows and Linux agents equally.
