Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows-first bias, particularly in the 'Application Initialization (AppInit)' section, where detailed instructions and references are provided for Windows (IIS Application Initialization Module), while Linux is only briefly mentioned with a single environment variable and no further explanation or example. Several features and troubleshooting steps are described in depth for Windows, with Linux alternatives either missing or only linked without detail. Windows tools and patterns (such as IIS modules and .NET Core stdout logging) are highlighted, while Linux equivalents are not discussed.
Recommendations
  • Provide equally detailed Linux examples and explanations, especially for application initialization and warm-up mechanisms. For example, include a step-by-step guide for configuring WEBSITE_WARMUP_PATH on Linux, with sample configuration and expected behavior.
  • When referencing Windows-specific tools (like IIS Application Initialization Module or .NET Core stdout logging), also mention and explain Linux-native equivalents or approaches (such as using startup scripts, health probes, or Linux logging best practices).
  • Ensure that for every Windows feature or troubleshooting step described, a Linux equivalent is either described or explicitly noted as unavailable, with suggested workarounds if possible.
  • Structure sections so that Linux and Windows approaches are presented with parity, rather than Windows-first with Linux as an afterthought.
  • Add practical Linux command-line or configuration examples where appropriate, not just links.
