Summary
The documentation provides both Windows and Linux guidance, but Windows examples and tools (PowerShell, Visual Studio) are presented more prominently and with greater detail. PowerShell commands are included for both viewing and updating settings, while Linux-specific instructions (such as using linuxFxVersion) are less detailed and lack parity in tooling (no PowerShell or portal support for linuxFxVersion). Windows scenarios (e.g., Visual Studio publishing) are described, but Linux equivalents are missing. Azure CLI is used for both platforms, but Windows users have more options and examples.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux/macOS equivalents for all Windows-specific instructions, especially for tasks like pinning runtime versions and viewing/updating settings.
- Add guidance for Linux users on how to perform tasks that are currently only described for Windows (e.g., publishing from VS Code, handling pinned versions).
- Clarify which tools and features are available on each platform, and avoid presenting Windows options first unless they are universally applicable.
- Where PowerShell is used for Windows, suggest Bash or other native Linux scripting alternatives for Linux users.
- Ensure that portal instructions explicitly state limitations for Linux (e.g., inability to set linuxFxVersion), and offer alternative workflows.
