Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows-first bias by providing more detailed instructions, features, and examples for Windows-based App Service apps. Several logging features (web server logging, detailed error messages, failed request tracing) are described only for Windows, with no Linux equivalents or alternatives mentioned. Windows-specific tools and log formats (e.g., W3C, Log Parser, Web.config) are referenced, while Linux-native patterns or tools are absent. Linux instructions are less detailed and sometimes limited to basic file system logging, with no mention of advanced diagnostics or parity with Windows features.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent Linux examples and instructions for all logging features, or clearly state if a feature is unavailable on Linux.
- Describe Linux-native logging and diagnostic tools (e.g., journalctl, syslog, or container log collection patterns) where applicable.
- Include parity tables or feature comparison charts to clarify which logging features are available on Windows vs. Linux.
- Avoid referencing only Windows tools (like Log Parser or Web.config) without suggesting Linux alternatives.
- Expand Linux sections to match the detail and troubleshooting guidance given for Windows, including advanced diagnostics and error tracing where possible.
- If certain features are Windows-only, suggest best-practice workarounds or third-party tools for Linux users.
