Summary
The documentation page exhibits several forms of Windows bias. The database setup section provides only PowerShell commands for Docker-based SQL Server setup, which are more familiar to Windows users and may be less accessible to Linux users. References to SQL Server Express specifically mention 'your local Windows computer' before mentioning Docker as an alternative, and no explicit Linux shell (bash) examples are provided for key steps. The troubleshooting section refers to Docker Desktop, a tool primarily used on Windows and macOS, with no mention of Linux-native Docker workflows. Overall, Linux users may find it harder to follow the quickstart due to the lack of parity in examples and tool references.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent bash shell commands for Docker-based SQL Server setup and validation, alongside PowerShell examples.
  • Mention Linux as a first-class platform for local development, including references to Linux-native Docker workflows and tools.
  • Include instructions for installing and running SQL Server Express or Docker on Linux, not just on 'your local Windows computer'.
  • Add troubleshooting steps relevant to Linux environments, such as using 'docker exec' and file system navigation from the Linux terminal.
  • Ensure that all command-line examples (e.g., azurite, func host start) are shown in both Windows (PowerShell) and Linux (bash) formats where differences exist.
