Summary
The documentation page exhibits Windows bias in several ways: Windows/PowerShell tools and workflows (Visual Studio for Windows, PowerShell, SQLCMD) are presented first or exclusively, with detailed instructions and screenshots. Linux/macOS equivalents (such as using Azure CLI, VS Code, or cross-platform SQL tools) are either relegated to later sections, given less detail, or omitted entirely. There are no explicit Linux-specific examples for database access or development environment setup, and the use of PowerShell and Visual Studio for Windows is emphasized throughout.
Recommendations
  • Provide explicit Linux/macOS development environment setup instructions, including using VS Code, JetBrains Rider, or CLI tools.
  • Include examples for connecting to Azure SQL Database using cross-platform tools such as sqlcmd (via Docker), Azure Data Studio, or the Azure CLI.
  • Add instructions for running database migration and debugging from Linux/macOS, not just Visual Studio for Windows.
  • Ensure parity in step-by-step guidance and screenshots for Linux/macOS workflows.
  • Mention and demonstrate using Bash scripts and CLI commands where PowerShell is used, and clarify cross-platform compatibility.
  • Reorder sections so that Windows and Linux/macOS approaches are presented equally, or use tabs for OS-specific instructions.
