Summary
The documentation generally covers networking options for Azure Functions in a cross-platform manner, but there are notable areas of Windows bias. The 'Hybrid Connections' feature is only available for Windows, with Linux explicitly not supported. In the 'Virtual network triggers' section, CLI, PowerShell, and portal instructions are provided, but there is a heavier emphasis on PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) and no Linux-specific scripting examples. Additionally, subnet sizing guidance is given for both Windows and Linux, but Windows is mentioned first and in more detail. There are no Linux shell (bash) command examples for automation or configuration, and Windows tools like PowerShell are referenced without Linux alternatives.
Recommendations
  • Where PowerShell examples are given, provide equivalent bash/Azure CLI examples for Linux users.
  • In automation sections, ensure that Linux-friendly tools (e.g., bash scripts, Azure CLI) are presented alongside or before Windows tools.
  • In feature descriptions (such as Hybrid Connections), clearly state Linux limitations early and suggest alternative solutions for Linux users if available.
  • When giving subnet sizing or configuration guidance, present Linux and Windows information in parallel, not with Windows first.
  • Add explicit Linux testing and troubleshooting guidance, especially for scenarios where portal or Windows tools are referenced.
  • Review all screenshots and UI instructions to ensure they are not Windows-specific or clarify if the experience is the same on Linux.
