Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively referencing Visual Studio for publishing Azure Functions, assuming the use of .sln files and .exe outputs, and omitting any Linux or cross-platform development environment instructions. While the Azure CLI is used (which is cross-platform), all development and deployment steps for the code are tied to Visual Studio, with no mention of alternatives like VS Code, CLI-based publishing, or other OS-agnostic tools. There are no Linux-specific or cross-platform examples for building, running, or deploying the sample projects.
Recommendations
  • Provide instructions for publishing the Azure Functions app using cross-platform tools such as Azure Functions Core Tools and VS Code, in addition to Visual Studio.
  • Include examples for building and running the sample projects on Linux/macOS, such as using 'dotnet build' and 'dotnet run' commands.
  • Mention that the sample projects can be opened and managed in VS Code or JetBrains Rider, not just Visual Studio.
  • Clarify that the Azure CLI and Cloud Shell steps work identically on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
  • If any steps require Windows-only tools (such as .exe outputs), provide equivalent instructions for Linux/macOS environments.
