Summary
The documentation exhibits several forms of Windows bias. In sections describing how to generate wheel files, Windows is mentioned first and in more detail for Python 3.8, with explicit instructions to use a Windows machine, while the Linux equivalent is only provided for Python 3.10. The PowerShell cmdlets for managing Python packages are presented without any Linux/CLI/az CLI alternatives, reinforcing a Windows-centric approach. There are no examples or guidance for managing packages using Linux-native tools or cross-platform command-line interfaces, and the documentation assumes familiarity with Windows conventions and tooling.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent Linux-based instructions and examples for all package management tasks, including generating wheel files for Python 3.8.
- Include az CLI or REST API examples alongside PowerShell cmdlets to ensure cross-platform accessibility.
- Explicitly mention when steps are platform-specific and offer alternatives for other platforms.
- Reorder sections or examples so that Linux and Windows are given equal prominence, or present them in parallel tabs.
- Clarify which steps are applicable to both Windows and Linux, and avoid assuming the user is on Windows by default.
