Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Windows tools and patterns, referencing Windows-specific paths and installers, and providing command-line examples primarily for Windows (cmd, PowerShell) without equivalent Linux/bash examples. Visual Studio, a Windows-centric IDE, is consistently mentioned first, and instructions for ReadyToRun binaries default to Windows targets. There is a lack of explicit Linux/macOS parity in tool usage, environment setup, and example commands.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent bash/zsh command-line examples alongside cmd and PowerShell, especially for package installation and Azure Functions Core Tools usage.
  • Explicitly mention and demonstrate Linux/macOS support for Azure Functions development, including file paths, environment variable access, and deployment steps.
  • Include instructions for publishing ReadyToRun binaries targeting Linux (e.g., linux-x64) and macOS (e.g., osx-x64), not just Windows (win-x86).
  • Balance the order of IDE/tool recommendations (e.g., mention Visual Studio Code and CLI before or alongside Visual Studio).
  • Reference cross-platform installation methods (such as Homebrew for macOS, apt for Ubuntu) for Azure Functions Core Tools.
  • Add notes or sections highlighting any platform-specific differences, caveats, or best practices for Linux/macOS users.
