Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Windows tools and workflows. Visual Studio is listed as the only required IDE, and all development instructions assume its use. Environment variable setup instructions list Windows command prompt and PowerShell before Linux/macOS, and no alternative Linux-friendly IDEs or CLI-only workflows are mentioned. There are no examples for developing or debugging Azure Functions using Linux-native tools, nor any mention of cross-platform alternatives to Visual Studio.
Recommendations
- Add instructions for developing and debugging Azure Functions using Visual Studio Code and/or Azure Functions Core Tools CLI, which are cross-platform.
- List Linux/macOS environment variable commands before or alongside Windows commands, rather than after.
- Explicitly mention that Visual Studio is Windows-only and suggest alternatives for Linux/macOS users.
- Include screenshots and workflow steps for Linux/macOS environments, such as using VS Code or terminal-based workflows.
- Clarify that Azure Functions Core Tools can be installed and used on Linux/macOS, and provide installation instructions.
- Consider providing a table or tabs for platform-specific instructions throughout the quickstart, ensuring parity between Windows and Linux/macOS.
