Summary
The documentation page demonstrates mild Windows bias in several areas. Windows-specific tools and patterns (such as PowerShell and Windows CMD) are mentioned and provided as examples, sometimes before or alongside Linux/macOS equivalents. The prerequisites and scripting instructions include explicit references to PowerShell and Windows installation instructions, and the script for retrieving the MCP server key provides a PowerShell example for Windows, while Linux/macOS users are given a Bash alternative. Additionally, some instructions (such as setting environment variables for Java) reference Windows conventions (JAVA_HOME), and the Visual Studio Code workflow is more commonly associated with Windows development environments.
Recommendations
  • Ensure Linux/macOS examples are always presented alongside Windows examples, and in some cases, consider listing Linux/macOS instructions first to balance the order.
  • Where PowerShell is used, provide equivalent Bash or shell script examples for Linux/macOS users, and clarify any platform-specific differences.
  • Avoid language that assumes Windows as the default environment (e.g., 'command prompt'), and use more neutral terms like 'terminal'.
  • Explicitly mention and link to Linux/macOS installation instructions for all required tools (e.g., .NET SDK, Azure CLI, Azurite, etc.), not just Windows.
  • Review all code snippets and setup steps to ensure parity and clarity for Linux/macOS users, including troubleshooting tips for common platform-specific issues.
