Summary
The documentation shows a mild Windows bias. While it does provide activation instructions for Linux, macOS, and Windows virtual environments, the Windows (PowerShell) command is listed last, which is a positive. However, throughout the guide, there is a strong emphasis on Visual Studio Code and its integrated tools, which are more commonly associated with Windows workflows. The use of Azurite (with VS Code integration) and the lack of explicit CLI or terminal-based alternatives for Linux users further reinforce a Windows/VS Code-centric approach. There are no explicit Linux command-line examples outside of the virtual environment activation, and the documentation assumes the use of GUI tools and extensions rather than cross-platform CLI workflows.
Recommendations
- Provide explicit Linux and macOS command-line alternatives for all steps, especially for tasks like starting Azurite, running/debugging the function app, and publishing to Azure.
- Include examples using the Azure Functions Core Tools CLI directly, not just through Visual Studio Code, to support users who prefer terminal workflows.
- Mention and demonstrate HTTP test tools available on Linux (such as curl or httpie) rather than generic references to 'HTTP test tool'.
- Clarify that all steps can be performed on Linux and macOS, not just Windows, and ensure parity in screenshots and instructions.
- Consider providing a section or callout for users who do not use Visual Studio Code, outlining equivalent steps using only the command line.
