Summary
The documentation exhibits a mild Windows bias. Windows tools and workflows (cmd, PowerShell, Visual Studio Code) are mentioned first or exclusively in several places, especially in instructions for opening the project, authenticating, and setting environment variables. PowerShell is given a dedicated authentication section, and Visual Studio Code is emphasized as the editor, which is more common on Windows. Linux instructions are present but often appear after Windows ones or are less detailed.
Recommendations
  • Present instructions for Windows, Linux, and macOS in parallel tabbed sections wherever possible, rather than listing Windows first.
  • Include Linux/macOS equivalents for all command-line and tool-based steps (e.g., suggest nano/vim for editing files, or mention alternative editors).
  • For authentication, give equal prominence to Azure CLI (cross-platform) and PowerShell, and clarify which are available on which platforms.
  • When referencing opening a terminal or console, use neutral language (e.g., 'terminal' instead of 'cmd, PowerShell, or Bash'), or list Bash first for parity.
  • Where Visual Studio Code is recommended, also mention that any editor can be used, and provide instructions for opening the project in a generic way.
  • Ensure all environment variable instructions are provided for Windows, Linux, and macOS, and consider using tabbed formatting for clarity.
