Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias by exclusively providing PowerShell examples for per-app scaling, referencing only Windows-centric tools (Az PowerShell cmdlets), and omitting equivalent Linux-native or cross-platform CLI examples. The PowerShell section appears first and is the only command-line example provided, with no mention of Azure CLI (az), Bash, or other Linux-friendly approaches. This may hinder accessibility for Linux users or those working in non-Windows environments.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent Azure CLI (az) examples for all PowerShell commands, showing how to enable per-app scaling and configure worker counts using cross-platform tools.
  • Include Bash shell script examples where appropriate, especially for configuring app settings via REST or CLI.
  • Explicitly mention that PowerShell commands can be run cross-platform (if true), or clarify any platform limitations.
  • Reorder sections or provide parallel examples so that Linux/cross-platform tools are not secondary to Windows/PowerShell.
  • Reference Linux tools and workflows in the narrative, not just in code samples.
