Missing Linux Example
Summary
The documentation provides a broad overview of Azure Service Fabric, which supports both Windows and Linux. However, there is a noticeable Windows bias: Windows-specific tools (e.g., PowerShell, Visual Studio) are mentioned before Linux equivalents, and Windows terminology (e.g., Windows service, FabricHost.exe) is used throughout. Standalone cluster creation is only described for Windows, with Linux standalone clusters explicitly not supported. Examples and instructions often reference Windows tools and patterns, with Linux alternatives sometimes missing or relegated to secondary mentions.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux-specific examples and instructions alongside Windows ones, especially for cluster creation, management, and health monitoring.
- Mention Linux CLI tools (e.g., sfctl) and scripting options before or alongside Windows PowerShell.
- Clarify which features are cross-platform and which are Windows-only, and link to Linux-specific guides where available.
- Add parity in 'Next steps' and throughout the page by including Linux-focused tutorials and quickstarts.
- Where Windows tools (e.g., Visual Studio) are referenced, also mention Linux-friendly alternatives (e.g., VS Code, CLI).
