Summary:
The documentation page exhibits a subtle Windows bias. While it covers multiple programming languages, the installation instructions and environment variable conventions are presented in a way that implicitly assumes Windows as the default environment. For example, the use of double underscores (`__`) in environment variable names aligns with Windows conventions, while the Linux/UNIX convention of using colons (`:`) is only mentioned in a note. There are no explicit Linux shell (bash) or cross-platform CLI examples, and PowerShell is listed as a primary language pivot, but Linux-specific instructions or examples are missing.
Recommendations:
- Provide explicit Linux/bash examples for environment variable configuration, such as using colons (`:`) in shell exports.
- Include cross-platform CLI instructions (e.g., Azure CLI commands) for installing extensions and setting environment variables.
- Add a section or note at the beginning clarifying environment variable naming differences between Windows and Linux, with examples for both.
- Ensure that PowerShell is not presented as the default or only scripting example; include bash/zsh equivalents where relevant.
- List Linux and Windows instructions side-by-side when discussing local development, configuration, or tooling.
