Summary
The documentation page exhibits mild Windows bias. In several troubleshooting sections, Windows/Powershell commands are presented before their Linux equivalents (e.g., checking Python bitness, deleting cache directories). Windows-specific tools and patterns (PowerShell, 'py' launcher) are referenced, sometimes with more detail than Linux alternatives. Some examples and instructions are Windows-first or Windows-heavy, and in a few cases, Linux examples are less emphasized or missing.
Recommendations
  • Present Linux and Windows examples side-by-side, or alternate which platform is shown first to avoid Windows-first bias.
  • Ensure all command-line instructions are provided for both Linux (bash/sh) and Windows (PowerShell/CMD), with equal detail and prominence.
  • Where Windows-specific tools (e.g., 'py' launcher, PowerShell) are mentioned, provide equivalent Linux alternatives (e.g., 'python3', bash commands) and clarify platform applicability.
  • Explicitly state when instructions or tools are platform-specific, and offer cross-platform alternatives where possible.
  • Review all troubleshooting steps to ensure Linux users are equally supported, especially given Azure Functions Python runs on Linux at runtime.
