Summary
The documentation demonstrates mild Windows bias. In authentication instructions, PowerShell is presented as a sign-in option alongside Azure CLI and Visual Studio Code, but is listed last. The environment variable setup instructions present Windows (setx) before Linux (export), and provide more detail for Windows (such as needing to restart the command window). The initial project setup mentions 'console window (such as PowerShell or Bash)', listing PowerShell before Bash. There is no explicit Linux example missing, but Windows tools and patterns are referenced throughout, and Windows-specific instructions are sometimes more detailed.
Recommendations
  • Present Linux and Windows instructions in parallel, or alternate which is listed first.
  • Provide equal detail for Linux and Windows steps (e.g., mention that new shells may be needed for Linux after setting environment variables).
  • Include Bash and Linux terminal examples wherever PowerShell is mentioned, and avoid implying PowerShell as the default.
  • Where possible, use cross-platform terminology (e.g., 'terminal' instead of 'console window such as PowerShell or Bash').
  • Ensure that any tool-specific instructions (e.g., Visual Studio Code, Azure CLI) clarify their cross-platform availability.
