Summary
The documentation page exhibits mild Windows bias. It references Windows-specific tooling (e.g., Windows PowerShell and Azure Website deployment guides), and in some places, Windows tools are mentioned before Linux alternatives. There are no explicit Linux-specific instructions or examples, and the guidance for running commands is generic ('command prompt'), which may confuse Linux users. The documentation does not provide parity for Linux environments or mention Linux-specific editors, shells, or deployment workflows.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit instructions for Linux users, such as using 'terminal' or 'shell' instead of only 'command prompt', and clarify that commands work on both Windows and Linux.
  • Provide links to Linux-specific deployment guides (e.g., deploying Node.js apps to Azure App Service from Linux).
  • Mention Linux-friendly editors (such as Vim, Nano, or even VS Code for Linux) alongside Visual Studio Code.
  • Where Windows PowerShell is referenced, also mention Bash or other common Linux shells.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI works on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and provide installation instructions for all platforms.
  • Avoid using Windows-centric terminology (e.g., 'command prompt') exclusively; use cross-platform terms or provide both.
