Summary
The documentation page demonstrates mild Windows bias. PowerShell is listed as a first-class language for Durable Functions quickstarts, with a dedicated link, while Linux-specific shells (e.g., Bash) are not mentioned. The quickstart and sample tables list PowerShell alongside .NET, Python, JavaScript/TypeScript, and Java, but do not provide parity for Linux-native scripting languages or tools. There is also a tendency to mention Windows-centric technologies (PowerShell, MSSQL) before Linux alternatives, and no explicit mention of Linux development environments or shell usage.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux/Bash shell examples and quickstarts alongside PowerShell for Durable Functions.
  • Explicitly mention Linux development environments and workflows (e.g., VS Code on Linux, Bash terminal usage).
  • Include parity for Linux-native tools and scripting languages in quickstart/sample tables.
  • Avoid listing Windows-centric technologies (PowerShell, MSSQL) before Linux alternatives; present them in parallel or with equal prominence.
  • Clarify that Durable Functions and SDKs are cross-platform and provide guidance for Linux users.
