Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias primarily through its reliance on Visual Studio Code and Windows-centric tools and workflows. The Azurite storage emulator is referenced with npm installation, but no explicit Linux-specific instructions or troubleshooting are provided. The tutorial assumes the use of Visual Studio Code and Core Tools, which are available cross-platform, but there is no mention of Linux-specific shell commands, environment setup, or alternative editors. The instructions for starting Azurite and running/debugging the function app use Visual Studio Code commands and keyboard shortcuts that are most familiar to Windows users. There are no explicit Linux or macOS terminal examples, nor any mention of platform-specific differences in configuration or execution.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit instructions for Linux and macOS users, including shell commands for starting Azurite and running/debugging the function app outside of Visual Studio Code.
  • Provide examples of configuring and running Azure Functions using native Linux tools and terminal commands (e.g., bash, zsh) in addition to Visual Studio Code.
  • Include troubleshooting notes for common Linux issues (e.g., file permissions, npm installation, environment variables).
  • Mention alternative editors or workflows for users who do not use Visual Studio Code.
  • Clarify that keyboard shortcuts and command palette instructions may differ on Linux/macOS and provide equivalents.
