Summary
The documentation presents Windows command prompt and PowerShell instructions before macOS and Linux equivalents, and provides detailed Windows-specific environment variable setup. While Linux/macOS examples are present, the ordering and emphasis favor Windows users, and the build script uses Windows-style path separators (\) in the MSBuild example, which may not work on Linux/macOS.
Recommendations
  • Present platform instructions in parallel or start with a neutral/default (e.g., .NET CLI) before platform-specific steps.
  • Use cross-platform path separators (e.g., $(OutDir)/azureappconfig.json) in MSBuild scripts or provide separate examples for Windows and Linux/macOS.
  • Explicitly state that all steps are supported on Linux/macOS and provide troubleshooting notes for platform-specific issues.
  • Ensure parity in detail and clarity for Linux/macOS instructions, matching those given for Windows.
  • Consider grouping environment variable setup instructions in a table or tabs that do not prioritize Windows.
