Summary:
The documentation avoids explicit Windows-only tools and PowerShell, but it exhibits subtle Windows bias by omitting any mention of Linux-specific development environments, deployment patterns, or troubleshooting. The use of GitHub Codespaces (which is cross-platform) and Bash commands is positive, but there is no discussion of running or deploying the app on a local Linux machine, nor are there instructions for Linux users who may not use Codespaces. The documentation assumes Azure CLI and .NET CLI are available, but doesn't address installation or environment setup on Linux, nor does it mention WSL or Linux-native workflows. All screenshots and UI references are Azure-centric, with no nod to Linux desktop environments or terminal conventions.
Recommendations:
- Add a section or notes on how to set up the development environment on a local Linux machine, including .NET SDK and Azure CLI installation instructions for Linux.
- Explicitly state that all CLI commands work on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and provide troubleshooting tips for common Linux-specific issues (e.g., permissions, port usage).
- Include at least one example of running the sample app outside Codespaces, such as on Ubuntu or another popular Linux distribution.
- Mention that the Azure CLI and .NET CLI are cross-platform, and provide links to Linux installation guides.
- If screenshots of terminals are included, show at least one from a Linux terminal emulator.
- Clarify that the instructions do not require Windows or PowerShell, and highlight any differences (if any) for Linux users.
