Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by frequently referencing Windows-specific tools (Azure PowerShell, Visual Studio), providing PowerShell commands as the only CLI example, and listing Windows-centric tools before cross-platform or Linux-native alternatives. There are no explicit Linux or bash shell examples, and the workflow for finding tenant/object IDs relies on PowerShell or Azure Portal, both of which are more familiar to Windows users. Visual Studio is mentioned before Visual Studio Code, and Azure PowerShell is listed before Azure CLI, despite CLI being more cross-platform. The Kudu/Advanced Tools instructions are also Windows-centric, with no mention of Linux-native approaches.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent bash/Azure CLI commands for all PowerShell examples, especially for finding tenant/object IDs.
  • List cross-platform tools (Azure CLI, Visual Studio Code) before Windows-only tools (PowerShell, Visual Studio) when presenting options.
  • Explicitly mention Linux support and provide Linux-specific instructions or screenshots where relevant (e.g., editing function.json, using Azure CLI in bash).
  • Clarify that Kudu/Advanced Tools are accessible from any OS via browser, and suggest alternative file editing methods for Linux users (e.g., using VS Code Remote, FTP, or Azure CLI).
  • Add a section or note on developing and deploying Azure Functions from Linux environments, including links to relevant documentation.
