Summary
The documentation page exhibits a moderate Windows bias. Instructions and examples for updating language versions in Azure Functions are frequently presented with Windows as the primary or default context, especially in tabbed sections and CLI commands. Windows-specific tools and patterns (such as .NET SDK, PowerShell, and Windows OS flags in CLI commands) are often mentioned before their Linux equivalents. In some cases, Linux instructions are relegated to notes or secondary tabs, and there are explicit statements about unsupported scenarios for Linux (e.g., Python on Windows). There is also a heavier focus on PowerShell and Windows-centric workflows, with less parity in Linux-specific troubleshooting and examples.
Recommendations
- Ensure that Linux instructions and examples are presented with equal prominence and detail as Windows examples, including in tabbed sections and CLI command samples.
- Avoid presenting Windows as the default or first option; instead, use neutral language or parallel presentation for both OSes.
- Expand troubleshooting and workflow sections to include Linux-specific guidance and examples, not just Windows-centric tools.
- Where features are unsupported on Linux or Windows, provide clear alternatives or workarounds for the affected platform.
- Include explicit Linux development toolchain recommendations and examples (e.g., for .NET, Node.js, Python) alongside Windows/PowerShell references.
