Summary:
The documentation consistently references Visual Studio Code and Azure Functions workflows, which are cross-platform, but all instructions and linked quickstarts are tailored to Visual Studio Code usage patterns. There is no mention of Linux-specific command-line workflows, nor are there examples for running or deploying the function outside of Visual Studio Code. The documentation implicitly assumes the user is using Visual Studio Code, which, while available on Linux, is not the default editor for many Linux users. There is also no mention of alternative editors, terminal-based workflows, or Linux-specific deployment/testing instructions.
Recommendations:
- Add explicit instructions for setting up and running the function using command-line tools (e.g., Azure Functions Core Tools, npm, and the Azure CLI) on Linux.
- Include examples for deploying and running the function using only the terminal, without relying on Visual Studio Code.
- Mention and provide links to Linux-specific documentation or quickstarts for Azure Functions.
- Clarify that Visual Studio Code is optional and that all steps can be performed on Linux using alternative editors and terminal commands.
- Provide troubleshooting tips or notes for common Linux environments (e.g., Ubuntu, Fedora) where paths, permissions, or dependencies may differ.
