Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Windows and PowerShell examples are presented alongside Azure CLI and portal instructions, but Windows-specific tools (PowerShell cmdlets, Visual Studio behaviors) are described in detail, while Linux-specific instructions are less prominent and sometimes limited to Azure CLI. The Windows platform is often discussed before Linux, and some features (such as pinning via portal or PowerShell) are unavailable or not documented for Linux. There is also an absence of Linux shell (bash) or scripting examples, and Linux-specific limitations (e.g., Consumption plan pinning) are mentioned but not deeply explained.
Recommendations
  • Ensure Linux instructions are presented with equal prominence and detail as Windows instructions, including step-by-step guides for common tasks.
  • Add Linux shell (bash) scripting examples where PowerShell scripts are provided for Windows.
  • Clarify limitations and alternatives for Linux users, such as the inability to pin runtime versions in the portal or via PowerShell, and provide guidance for these scenarios.
  • Where features are unavailable on Linux (e.g., portal or PowerShell pinning), explicitly state this and suggest workarounds or alternatives.
  • Consider presenting platform-specific instructions in parallel (side-by-side tabs or sections) rather than Windows-first ordering.
  • Expand documentation on Linux-specific settings and behaviors, such as the use of linuxFxVersion, with more real-world examples and troubleshooting tips.
