Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a mild Windows bias. Windows-specific tools and configuration steps (such as Visual Studio, PowerShell, and Windows-specific CLI commands) are often mentioned first or exclusively, with Linux equivalents sometimes only referenced later or in passing. Some deployment and configuration examples (e.g., ReadyToRun, runtime identifiers, and debugging) provide more detail for Windows than Linux, and PowerShell is listed as a primary automation option without equal emphasis on Bash or Linux scripting. In a few cases, Linux-specific instructions are present but less prominent or lack parity in detail.
Recommendations:
- Ensure that all command-line examples (e.g., Azure CLI, deployment, debugging) include both Windows and Linux syntax and context, ideally side-by-side or in clearly marked tabs.
- When listing tools or workflows (e.g., Visual Studio, Visual Studio Code, PowerShell), always include Linux-native or cross-platform alternatives (e.g., Bash, zsh, JetBrains Rider) with equal prominence.
- For sections like ReadyToRun and runtime identifiers, provide Linux examples and explanations with the same level of detail as Windows.
- Avoid listing Windows tools or workflows first by default; alternate the order or use neutral/cross-platform ordering.
- Where PowerShell is mentioned, also mention Bash or other common Linux shells for scripting and automation.
- In debugging and deployment sections, ensure Linux workflows are fully documented and not just referenced as an afterthought.
- Audit all code snippets and configuration examples to ensure Linux users are not required to infer steps from Windows-centric instructions.
