Summary:
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows-based App Service environments. It consistently uses Windows environment variables (e.g., %SystemDrive%, %ResourceDrive%, %HOME%), Windows file path conventions (e.g., d:\, c:\), and references to Windows-specific features such as IIS, ASP.NET, COM components, and the Windows registry. There are no Linux-specific examples, environment variables, or file system conventions. The only mention of Linux is a brief note at the beginning, with no further detail or parity in the rest of the document.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent Linux examples and explanations for file paths, environment variables, and storage locations (e.g., use $HOME, /home/site/wwwroot, etc.).
- Include Linux-specific details for file access, temporary storage, and network configuration.
- Add sections or callouts that describe how the described functionality (e.g., diagnostic logs, process execution, registry access) maps to Linux containers in App Service.
- Mention Linux tools and patterns (e.g., Bash, shell scripts, Linux permissions) alongside Windows tools (e.g., PowerShell, IIS).
- Structure the documentation so that Linux and Windows information are presented in parallel, or clearly indicate when information is Windows-only.
- Clarify which features (such as registry access, IIS, COM components) are not applicable or have Linux equivalents, and provide guidance for Linux users.
