Summary
The documentation page exhibits a Windows bias in several ways: Windows tools and patterns (Visual Studio, MSI installer, Windows paths) are mentioned first or exclusively, PowerShell and Windows command prompt examples are provided, and Linux-specific instructions or examples are missing or relegated to secondary status. The ReadyToRun example only shows Windows as the target platform, and references to local development and environment variables use Windows-centric paths and terminology. There is little to no mention of Linux equivalents, such as bash, Linux file paths, or Linux-specific deployment instructions.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux-specific examples and instructions alongside Windows ones, especially for local development, environment variables, and deployment.
  • Include bash and Linux CLI examples for package installation and project setup, not just Windows command prompt and PowerShell.
  • Show ReadyToRun configuration for Linux (e.g., linux-x64) in addition to Windows (win-x86).
  • Reference Linux file paths and environment variable conventions where appropriate.
  • Ensure parity in tool recommendations, such as highlighting VS Code and CLI usage for both Windows and Linux, not just Visual Studio.
  • Explicitly mention cross-platform compatibility of Azure Functions Core Tools and provide installation instructions for Linux (apt, yum, etc.).
