Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on development using Visual Studio 2022, a Windows-centric IDE, and provides step-by-step instructions and screenshots for Windows workflows only. There are no examples or guidance for Linux or cross-platform development environments (such as VS Code or CLI-based workflows). Package installation is shown only with PowerShell commands, and remote debugging is explicitly stated as supported only on Windows. Windows tools and patterns are mentioned exclusively and before any alternatives.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent instructions and examples for developing Azure Functions using VS Code and/or CLI tools on Linux and macOS.
- Provide package installation examples using dotnet CLI (e.g., 'dotnet add package ...') alongside PowerShell.
- Clarify which steps are Windows-specific and offer alternatives for Linux/macOS users, such as using Azure Functions Core Tools directly.
- Include screenshots and UI descriptions for VS Code or other cross-platform editors.
- Explicitly mention remote debugging limitations and provide guidance for Linux/macOS users, including any available alternatives.
- Reference cross-platform documentation and tooling where appropriate, and avoid assuming Visual Studio is the only development environment.
