Summary
The documentation is heavily oriented toward Windows users by focusing exclusively on Visual Studio (the full IDE), which is only fully supported on Windows. All instructions, screenshots, and workflows assume the use of Visual Studio, with no equivalent steps or examples for Linux users. There are no CLI or cross-platform alternatives provided within the main content, and Linux users are only briefly redirected to a separate Visual Studio Code article. The use of Windows-specific tools and UI patterns (e.g., Visual Studio menus, File Explorer) further reinforces the Windows bias.
Recommendations
  • Provide parallel instructions for Linux users using Visual Studio Code and the Azure Functions Core Tools CLI within this article, or clearly indicate cross-platform alternatives at each step.
  • Include CLI-based steps for creating, running, and deploying Azure Functions projects, which work on both Windows and Linux.
  • Add screenshots and examples from Linux environments (e.g., using terminal, file managers) where appropriate.
  • Clarify in the prerequisites and introduction that Visual Studio is only available on Windows, and offer a direct, prominent link to the cross-platform (VS Code/CLI) guide.
  • Where Azurite or other tools are mentioned, note their installation and usage on Linux.
  • Consider restructuring the article or providing tabs/sections for Windows (Visual Studio) and Linux/macOS (VS Code/CLI) users to ensure parity.
