Summary
The documentation page is focused on Visual Studio, which is primarily a Windows tool, and lists Windows prerequisites and workflows first. While deployment examples are provided for both Azure CLI (cross-platform) and Azure PowerShell (Windows-centric), the overall flow and tool recommendations prioritize Windows environments. There is minimal mention of Linux or macOS alternatives, and Visual Studio Code (which is cross-platform) is only referenced as a next step.
Recommendations
- Explicitly mention platform compatibility for Visual Studio and the Bicep extension, clarifying that Visual Studio is Windows-only and suggesting Visual Studio Code for Linux/macOS users.
- Provide equal prominence to Visual Studio Code in the introduction and prerequisites, not just as a next step.
- Include notes or sections for Linux/macOS users, such as installation instructions for the Azure CLI and Bicep tooling on those platforms.
- Ensure that all command-line examples (Azure CLI and PowerShell) are clearly marked as cross-platform or Windows-specific, and recommend Azure CLI as the default for Linux/macOS.
- Consider adding screenshots and workflow steps for Visual Studio Code alongside Visual Studio, or link to a parallel guide at the start.
