Summary:
The documentation page exhibits a Windows bias by focusing on Windows-specific tools, commands, and examples. It references Windows registry paths, uses Windows-centric terminology (e.g., Patch Tuesday), and provides instructions and examples that are only applicable to Windows-based App Service instances. There is a lack of equivalent Linux-based examples or guidance, and the documentation does not clarify differences or provide parity for Linux App Service environments.
Recommendations:
- Add explicit sections or notes for Linux-based App Service instances, including how OS and runtime patching works for Linux.
- Provide Linux-specific examples for querying OS and runtime versions (e.g., using /etc/os-release, lsb_release, or other Linux commands in Kudu Bash).
- Clarify which instructions or commands apply only to Windows and which to Linux, or provide side-by-side examples for both platforms.
- Avoid referencing Windows registry or tools (such as reg query) without Linux equivalents, or provide alternative Linux commands.
- Mention Linux patching cadence and mechanisms if they differ from Windows, and link to relevant Linux documentation.
