Summary:
The documentation shows a clear Windows bias. Windows/PowerShell tools and workflows are prioritized or exclusively presented in several key steps, such as connecting to Azure SQL Database (using sqlcmd in PowerShell) and development environment setup (Visual Studio for Windows, Visual Studio Code, Azure PowerShell). There are no explicit Linux or cross-platform command-line examples for database access or development, and the instructions assume a Windows-centric development environment.
Recommendations:
- Provide explicit Linux/macOS examples for connecting to Azure SQL Database, such as using sqlcmd in Bash or Azure Data Studio.
- Include cross-platform development environment instructions, such as using Visual Studio Code or JetBrains Rider on Linux/macOS, and clarify how to configure authentication in those environments.
- When showing command-line examples (e.g., sqlcmd), provide both Windows (PowerShell/cmd) and Linux/macOS (Bash) variants, including installation instructions for required tools on all platforms.
- Avoid assuming Visual Studio for Windows as the default IDE; mention and provide parity for Visual Studio Code and other cross-platform editors.
- Highlight any platform-specific differences or requirements, especially for .NET development on Linux/macOS.
