Summary
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Windows-specific tools and patterns (PowerShell, app.config/web.config, setx) are mentioned first or exclusively in several places. The environment variable section lists Windows first, and the CLI installation link defaults to Windows. There is heavy use of PowerShell/Windows-centric examples, while Linux/macOS equivalents are present but less emphasized or appear after Windows instructions. Some configuration file examples (app.config/web.config) are Windows/.NET-centric, with no mention of Linux-native config patterns.
Recommendations
  • Present Linux/macOS examples before or alongside Windows examples, not after.
  • Provide links to Azure CLI installation for Linux/macOS in addition to Windows.
  • Include Linux-native configuration file examples (e.g., .env, systemd service files) alongside app.config/web.config.
  • Balance the use of PowerShell with Bash or other cross-platform shell examples.
  • Ensure all instructions and screenshots are platform-neutral or provide alternatives for each OS.
