Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by primarily referencing Windows-centric tools and workflows such as PowerShell and Visual Studio, both in the main text and in the 'Next steps' section. There are no explicit examples or instructions for Linux users (e.g., using Azure CLI or Bash scripts), and Windows tools are mentioned before or instead of cross-platform alternatives. This may make it less accessible or welcoming for users managing Azure resources from Linux or macOS environments.
Recommendations
  • Include Azure CLI examples and instructions alongside or before PowerShell, as Azure CLI is cross-platform and widely used on Linux and macOS.
  • Mention and provide links to deploying Cloud Services (extended support) using Bash scripts or other Linux-native tools.
  • Ensure that Visual Studio is not the only IDE referenced; include Visual Studio Code (which is cross-platform) or other editors.
  • In 'Next steps' and deployment instructions, list cross-platform tools (e.g., Azure CLI, Portal, ARM templates) before or alongside Windows-specific tools.
  • Add explicit notes or sections for Linux/macOS users to ensure parity in guidance and examples.
