Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Windows-specific tools and configuration steps are often mentioned before or more prominently than their Linux equivalents. Examples of Azure CLI and PowerShell commands are provided, but PowerShell and Windows-specific configuration (such as netFrameworkVersion and win-x64) are frequently foregrounded. Some sections, such as ReadyToRun and deployment, provide more detailed or explicit instructions for Windows than for Linux. Linux instructions are present but sometimes less detailed or appear after Windows instructions. There are few, if any, explicit Linux shell (bash) examples, and PowerShell is referenced as a primary automation tool.
Recommendations:
- Ensure that for every Windows-specific example or tool (e.g., PowerShell, win-x64), an equivalent Linux example (e.g., bash, linux-x64) is provided with equal prominence and detail.
- When listing deployment or configuration options, alternate the order or present both Windows and Linux options side-by-side, rather than defaulting to Windows first.
- Add explicit bash shell examples for common CLI operations, not just Azure CLI syntax blocks, to clarify usage on Linux/macOS.
- Where PowerShell is mentioned as an automation tool, also mention bash or other cross-platform scripting options.
- In tables and instructions, avoid assuming Visual Studio (Windows) as the default IDE; give equal weight to VS Code and CLI workflows.
- Review all sections for subtle language that prioritizes Windows (e.g., 'On Windows, ...'), and balance with Linux/macOS notes.
- Where configuration settings differ (e.g., netFrameworkVersion vs. linuxFxVersion), provide clear, parallel explanations and examples for both platforms.
