Vite-React app indicates "No Content"

I have a [Vite ](https://vitejs.dev/guide/)React app, and a Linux App Service Plan. I issue `az webapp up -r NODE:16-lts` and received a status 3 error. More fully:

```

```

**To Reproduce**

On my Windows 11 laptop I used Vite in a powershell prompt to create a React/Typescript app. I ran `npm install` since Azure App Services seems to rely on npm. I demonstrated the app works locally by running `npm run dev`. I then ran `npx vite build` to prepare this app for production, which creates a `dist` folder. Into the `dist` folder I place a `.azure/config` file which provides location, group, sku, appserviceplan and an app name. I then enter the `dist` folder and issued the command `az webapp up -r NODE:16-lts` and got the aforementioned problem.

I then decided to handle this deployment very differently, according to [MS documentation for a static site](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/quickstart-html), by using the following command from within the aforementioned `dist` folder:

```
// The .azure/config file specifies location, group, sku, appserviceplan, app name.
az webapp up --html --os-type linux -r NODE:16-lts
```
Unfortunately this also did not work. I received the following error:

> Conflicting parameters: cannot have both --runtime and --html specified.

This is strange, because the prior mentioned MS documentation expressly indicates combining those two parameters. So I then decide to remove the `-runtime` parameter and try again. I then receive this next error message:

> usage error: --runtime | --deployment-container-image-name | --multicontainer-config-type TYPE --multicontainer-config-file FILE

Apparently the above is a [github-tracked issue](https://github.com/Azure/azure-cli/issues/7013) that I think is still unresolved. I am surprised that none of these approaches are working.

## Update

By issuing the command `az webapp up --help`, I discovered that the `--html` switch only works with a Windows App Service Plan. That's surprising because (1) the CLI tool didn't bother to give me an error message indicating the incompatibility of those options and (2) the online [MS documentation](https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/app-service/quickstart-html) expressly affirms combining `--html` with `--os-type linux`.

Based on this discovery, I was FINALLY able to deploy my Vite/React app successfully. However, this simply focuses my question/issue: why is an `--html` deployment not an option for Linux?

**Expected behavior**

What I expected is that the sample app made by Vite, as compiled into the `dist` folder and deployed with `az webapp up`, would appear in the `site/wwwroot` location of the App Service. Instead nothing is uploaded at all. There are only four files in my localhost `dist` folder:

```
index.html
vite.svg
assets\index-3fce1f81.css
assets\index-e73c0651.js
react-35ef61ed.svg
```
