Summary:
The documentation page exhibits a moderate Windows bias, especially in the .NET/ASP.NET section, where Windows tools (Visual Studio, Azure PowerShell) are listed before cross-platform or Linux-native tools. Some Python and database examples default to Windows tabs or instructions, and the 'Next step' call-to-action promotes an ASP.NET (typically Windows-centric) quickstart. Linux and CLI options are present but are often listed after Windows-centric tools or not highlighted equally.
Recommendations:
- Ensure that for every Windows-specific tool or example (e.g., Visual Studio, Azure PowerShell), equivalent Linux or cross-platform alternatives (e.g., VS Code, Azure CLI, Bash) are listed with equal prominence and, where possible, listed first or side-by-side.
- Review all quickstart and tutorial links to ensure Linux tabs/examples are available and, if possible, default to cross-platform or Linux-first views.
- Avoid defaulting to Windows tabs or instructions in code samples and links, especially for languages and stacks that are commonly used on Linux (e.g., Python, Node.js, PHP).
- Balance the 'Next step' call-to-action by either rotating through different stacks or providing a neutral/cross-platform example, rather than defaulting to ASP.NET.
- Explicitly mention when steps or tools are cross-platform, and clarify when a tool is Windows-only.
- For .NET/ASP.NET, highlight .NET Core's cross-platform capabilities and provide explicit Linux deployment examples.
