Summary:
The documentation exhibits subtle Windows bias. It references Windows-specific tools (e.g., func.exe), mentions PowerShell as a supported runtime with special features, and refers to Windows patterns (such as .pfx certificates and trusted certificate creation) without clarifying Linux/Mac equivalents. There are no explicit Linux or cross-platform shell examples, and some features (like log streaming) are noted as unsupported on Linux in certain plans, but without offering Linux alternatives or parity guidance.
Recommendations:
- Provide explicit Linux/macOS shell examples (e.g., bash/zsh) alongside or instead of Windows/PowerShell commands.
- Clarify cross-platform behavior for features like certificate creation, trusted certificates, and file paths (e.g., .pfx usage on Linux).
- Avoid referencing Windows-specific tools (like func.exe) in the title/description; use cross-platform terms (e.g., Azure Functions Core Tools CLI).
- For features not supported on Linux (e.g., log streaming in Consumption plan), offer alternative Linux-compatible workflows or clarify expected behavior.
- Ensure all examples and instructions are validated on Linux/macOS and highlight any OS-specific differences or requirements.
