Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Windows tools and workflows, such as Visual Studio and Windows-specific command-line instructions. Visual Studio is listed as the only development environment in prerequisites, and all project creation and debugging steps assume its use. Environment variable setup instructions list Windows Command Prompt and PowerShell before Linux/macOS equivalents. There is no mention of cross-platform editors (e.g., VS Code) or Linux-specific development workflows.
Recommendations
  • Include instructions for creating and debugging Azure Functions apps using cross-platform tools like Visual Studio Code and the Azure Functions Core Tools CLI.
  • List Linux/macOS commands before or alongside Windows commands when setting environment variables, or present them in parallel tabs.
  • Add explicit guidance for Linux users on installing prerequisites and running the function locally, including any differences in workflow.
  • Mention alternative development environments in the prerequisites, such as VS Code or JetBrains Rider, and link to relevant setup guides.
  • Clarify that Azure Functions development is supported on Linux/macOS and provide links to official documentation for those platforms.
