Summary:
The documentation exhibits a mild Windows bias. Windows-specific tools and configuration steps are often mentioned first or exclusively, such as in ReadyToRun instructions, .NET preview version setup, and process architecture checks. PowerShell and Visual Studio are highlighted as primary tools, with Linux equivalents either mentioned later, less prominently, or not at all. Some CLI examples are Windows-centric, and Linux-specific nuances are sometimes relegated to notes or tabs. There are also areas where Linux-specific deployment or debugging workflows are not fully detailed.
Recommendations:
- Ensure all tool and command-line examples are provided for both Windows and Linux, ideally side-by-side or with equal prominence.
- When listing options for creating or deploying resources, alternate the order (e.g., sometimes list Linux/CLI first, not always Windows/Visual Studio).
- Include Linux-specific instructions for debugging, deployment, and configuration wherever Windows instructions are given.
- Provide explicit bash and PowerShell examples for CLI commands, especially for scripting or automation.
- Clarify any differences in behavior or requirements between Windows and Linux environments, especially for advanced features like ReadyToRun, cold start optimizations, and .NET preview support.
- Where Visual Studio is mentioned, also mention cross-platform alternatives (e.g., Visual Studio Code, JetBrains Rider) and ensure parity in guidance.
- Review all references to Azure PowerShell and ensure Azure CLI (which is cross-platform) is given equal or greater prominence.
