@Mehdi Hasan Thanks for reaching out to Microsoft Q&A, apologize for any inconvenience caused on this.

Based on the shared information, I understand that you want to know How to edit the files that were present under the wwwroot folder of your app service. Correct me if my understanding in wrong.

Irrespective of operating system it is hosted either in Windows based or Linux based app service plan. By default, you can edit the contents inside wwwroot folder using Advanced Tools (Kudu console).

You can access the Kudu console by requesting to this URL https://<app-name>.scm.azurewebsites.net in the browser.

• If your app is running windows based app service plan, then you will have either CMD\Powershell to edit or update the files in the app service file system.
• If your app is running in Linux based plan then you can use either SSH\Bash to edit or update the files.

Refer to this documentation to know more information about KUDU console.

Alternatively, you can also use App service editor(provides in-browser-editing experience of your app code) which is available in windows-based app service plans as shown below.

Feel free to reach back to me if you have any further questions on this.
