Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Windows/Visual Studio workflows, using PowerShell and Windows-specific tools for key steps (such as SQLCMD in PowerShell), and omitting explicit Linux or cross-platform alternatives for several operations. Linux development environments and tools are not given equal prominence or example coverage, especially for database administration and local development setup.
Recommendations
  • Provide explicit Linux/macOS equivalents for all command-line steps, especially for SQL Database administration (e.g., using sqlcmd in Bash, Azure Data CLI, or cross-platform tools).
  • Add examples and instructions for setting up and debugging .NET apps with managed identity on Linux/macOS, including using VS Code and the .NET CLI.
  • Ensure that cross-platform tools (like Azure CLI and VS Code) are introduced before or alongside Windows-specific tools (Visual Studio, PowerShell).
  • Include notes or sections on using Docker or WSL for cross-platform development and testing.
  • When referencing PowerShell or Windows tools, always provide the corresponding Bash or shell commands for parity.
  • Highlight any differences or additional steps required for Linux/macOS users, especially around authentication and environment setup.
