Summary:
The documentation exhibits a moderate Windows bias, particularly in the .NET section, where Windows tools (Visual Studio, Azure PowerShell) are listed before cross-platform or Linux-native tools. The 'Next step' callout exclusively promotes deploying an ASP.NET app (a Windows-centric stack). In the Python section, example links default to 'windows' tabs, and PowerShell is offered as a primary automation tool in .NET. Linux-specific examples are present but often secondary or less emphasized, and in some stacks (e.g., PHP), only Linux is mentioned, but overall parity is inconsistent.
Recommendations:
- Ensure that for every Windows tool or example (e.g., Visual Studio, PowerShell), a Linux equivalent (e.g., VS Code, Azure CLI, Bash) is provided and given equal prominence.
- Avoid listing Windows tools first by default; alternate the order or group by platform.
- In call-to-action/next-step sections, provide options for both Windows and Linux stacks, or make the next step stack-agnostic.
- For Python and other cross-platform stacks, ensure that example links and tabs do not default to 'windows' but offer both 'windows' and 'linux' options equally.
- Where PowerShell is mentioned, also mention Bash/Azure CLI equivalents.
- Audit all quickstart and tutorial links to ensure Linux users are not required to adapt Windows-centric instructions.
