Summary
The documentation page does not show explicit Windows bias in terms of examples or tooling (e.g., PowerShell, Windows-specific tools, or CLI patterns). However, there is a subtle 'windows_first' bias: .NET (C#) examples and explanations are presented first and in greater detail, including advanced features like class-based syntax and entity coordination. These .NET examples implicitly assume a Windows-centric development environment, as .NET historically has stronger ties to Windows. Linux-specific considerations, CLI commands, or platform differences are not discussed. There are no PowerShell examples, and no explicit mention of Windows-only tools, but the lack of parity in depth and advanced features for JavaScript and Python (which are more cross-platform) is notable. Linux users may find the documentation less comprehensive for their preferred languages and environments.
Recommendations
- Provide equal depth and advanced examples for JavaScript and Python, including entity coordination and locking scenarios.
- Add notes or sections discussing platform differences, such as running Durable Functions on Linux vs. Windows, and any implications for .NET, JavaScript, or Python.
- Include CLI-based examples (e.g., Azure CLI, Bash) for common tasks, especially for Linux users.
- Ensure that links and 'Next steps' are not .NET-centric; offer developer guides for JavaScript and Python durable entities.
- Explicitly state that all examples are cross-platform unless otherwise noted, and clarify any platform-specific limitations.
