Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias primarily through the exclusive use of Visual Studio Code and Azurite emulator instructions that assume a Windows environment. Steps such as starting Azurite and running the function app use commands and patterns typical for Windows users (e.g., using F1 and F5 keys, referencing Core Tools in debug mode), without mentioning or providing examples for Linux or macOS equivalents. There are no Linux-specific instructions for installing prerequisites, running Azurite, or using alternative editors/terminals. The documentation also references Windows-centric tools and workflows before any cross-platform alternatives.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit instructions for Linux and macOS users, including terminal commands for starting Azurite and running/debugging Azure Functions.
  • Include installation steps for prerequisites (such as .NET Core CLI, Azurite) on Linux and macOS, not just Windows.
  • Mention cross-platform alternatives to Visual Studio Code where appropriate, or clarify that VS Code is available on all platforms.
  • Provide keyboard shortcut alternatives for F1 and F5 for Linux/macOS users, or describe how to perform these actions via command line.
  • Ensure that any references to file paths, environment variables, and configuration steps are platform-agnostic or include platform-specific notes.
