Summary:
The documentation provides both Linux and Windows examples for basic App Service deployments, but Windows scenarios are often listed before Linux equivalents, and there are more Windows-specific templates (e.g., Windows container, Windows with MySQL/PostgreSQL) than Linux ones. Some advanced scenarios (e.g., App with connected resources) are only shown for Windows, with Linux equivalents missing. There is also a lack of parity in the depth and variety of Linux-focused examples compared to Windows.
Recommendations:
- Ensure that for every Windows-specific template (e.g., App with MySQL/PostgreSQL, App with SQL Database), there is a Linux equivalent provided and linked.
- Present Linux and Windows examples in parallel or alternate their order to avoid implicit prioritization of Windows.
- Add more advanced Linux scenarios, such as Linux app with Azure SQL Database, Linux app with Blob storage, and Linux app with Redis cache.
- Where possible, use neutral language and avoid grouping Linux examples separately from the main list to reinforce parity.
- Review and update the documentation regularly to ensure Linux and Windows feature parity as Azure evolves.
