Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. While the Azure CLI is cross-platform and used throughout, examples and instructions for running the simulated device app are focused on .NET/C# and use Windows-centric terminology (e.g., 'cmd/sh', references to local terminal windows, and screenshots that appear to be from Windows environments). There is mention of PowerShell as an option for resource creation, but no Linux shell or bash-specific instructions or examples are provided. There are no explicit Linux or macOS instructions for running the sample app, installing dependencies, or troubleshooting platform-specific issues. The documentation does not mention Linux tools or patterns, nor does it provide parity for Linux users in terms of screenshots or step-by-step guidance.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit instructions and examples for Linux and macOS users, including bash shell commands and screenshots from those environments.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI commands work on all platforms and provide notes on any platform-specific differences (e.g., environment variable syntax).
  • Include troubleshooting tips for common Linux/macOS issues (such as file permissions, dependency installation, or .NET SDK setup).
  • Provide alternative instructions for running the simulated device app on Linux/macOS, including terminal commands and expected output.
  • Balance screenshots to include both Windows and Linux environments, or use neutral screenshots where possible.
  • Mention Linux equivalents when referencing PowerShell, and avoid implying Windows as the default environment.
