Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively referencing Visual Studio (a Windows-centric tool) for publishing the API, without mentioning cross-platform alternatives or providing Linux/macOS instructions. There are no command-line or non-Windows deployment examples, and the workflow assumes the user is operating in a Windows environment.
Recommendations
  • Provide alternative instructions for deploying the API using cross-platform tools such as the .NET CLI (dotnet publish) and Azure CLI, which work on Linux and macOS.
  • Include examples or references for uploading certificates and configuring App Service settings using Azure CLI, PowerShell, and the Azure Portal, making clear which methods are cross-platform.
  • Explicitly state that Visual Studio is optional and provide equivalent steps for Linux/macOS users.
  • Review all steps for hidden Windows dependencies and ensure parity in documentation for Linux and macOS environments.
