Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Windows and Visual Studio (Windows) workflows, using PowerShell and Windows-specific tools (e.g., sqlcmd, Visual Studio menus), and omitting explicit Linux or cross-platform command-line examples for key steps such as database permission grants. Linux development environments are only briefly mentioned via Azure CLI, with no detailed guidance for Linux users on tasks like connecting to SQL Database or running migrations.
Recommendations
  • Provide explicit Linux/macOS examples for connecting to Azure SQL Database, such as using sqlcmd or Azure Data Studio on Linux/macOS, or using Dockerized tools.
  • Include bash/zsh command-line instructions for all steps currently shown only with PowerShell or Windows tools.
  • Reorganize sections so that cross-platform or Linux-native workflows (e.g., Azure CLI, VS Code) are presented alongside or before Windows/PowerShell-specific instructions.
  • Clarify which steps are platform-agnostic and which are Windows-specific, and offer alternatives where possible.
  • Add guidance for running and debugging .NET apps on Linux/macOS, including database migration and publishing steps using dotnet CLI and VS Code.
  • Ensure all screenshots and menu paths have Linux/macOS equivalents or note when a feature is Windows-only.
