Summary
The documentation demonstrates a subtle Windows bias by referencing Windows-centric tools and workflows (such as Visual Studio Code and Azurite) without explicitly addressing Linux alternatives or usage differences. The instructions for starting Azurite and running the function app use command palette steps that are most familiar to Windows users, and there is no mention of Linux-specific considerations or terminal commands. Additionally, the documentation assumes the use of Visual Studio Code, which, while cross-platform, is more commonly associated with Windows development environments.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly mention that Visual Studio Code and Azurite are cross-platform, and provide links or notes for Linux installation and usage.
  • Include terminal command alternatives for starting Azurite and running/debugging the function app (e.g., `azurite` and `func start`), especially for Linux users who may prefer CLI workflows.
  • Add a brief section or callout for Linux/macOS users highlighting any differences in setup, permissions, or file paths.
  • Ensure that all steps referencing the command palette or keyboard shortcuts clarify any OS-specific differences (e.g., <kbd>Ctrl</kbd> vs <kbd>Cmd</kbd> on macOS).
  • Where possible, provide bash/zsh shell commands alongside GUI instructions, especially for steps like updating configuration files or starting services.
