Summary
The documentation page exhibits mild Windows bias. In the Durable Functions quickstart table, the PowerShell example is listed alongside other languages, but there is no explicit mention of Linux shell equivalents (e.g., Bash). Additionally, the documentation does not mention Linux-specific development tools or patterns, nor does it provide parity for Linux command-line usage. While most examples are cross-platform (e.g., .NET, Python, JavaScript, Java), the inclusion of PowerShell without Bash or Linux shell examples, and the lack of explicit Linux development instructions, suggests a subtle Windows-first orientation.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux shell (Bash) quickstart examples alongside PowerShell for Durable Functions.
  • Explicitly mention cross-platform development environments and tools (e.g., VS Code on Linux, Bash terminals).
  • Clarify that all SDKs and frameworks are supported on both Windows and Linux, and provide instructions for both platforms where relevant.
  • Include troubleshooting or setup notes for Linux users, especially for local development and deployment scenarios.
  • Ensure parity in sample code and walkthroughs for Linux users, including containerization and orchestration on Linux-native platforms.
