Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by focusing exclusively on Visual Studio (a Windows-centric IDE) for Bicep file authoring, listing Visual Studio and its extension as primary prerequisites, and presenting PowerShell examples alongside Azure CLI for deployment and cleanup. Windows tools and patterns are mentioned first or exclusively, with no mention of Linux-native editors (other than a brief link to VS Code), nor any Linux-specific considerations for Visual Studio usage. The page does not provide parity for Linux users in terms of setup or alternative workflows.
Recommendations
- Add explicit guidance for Linux users, such as recommending VS Code (which is cross-platform) for Bicep authoring and linking to relevant setup instructions.
- Clarify that Visual Studio is Windows-only and suggest alternatives for Linux and macOS users.
- Provide Linux-specific instructions or notes for Bicep deployment, including shell commands and environment setup.
- Reorder prerequisites and examples to present cross-platform tools (e.g., Azure CLI, VS Code) before Windows-specific ones.
- Include screenshots and workflow steps for VS Code on Linux, and mention any differences in extension installation or usage.
