Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows development using Visual Studio, with all instructions, screenshots, and workflows tailored to the Windows environment. There are no examples or guidance for Linux or macOS users, and all tooling references (Visual Studio, PowerShell, Package Manager Console, remote debugging) are Windows-centric. Linux alternatives, such as VS Code, CLI workflows, or cross-platform debugging, are not mentioned or are relegated to secondary references. The use of PowerShell for package installation further reinforces the Windows bias.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent instructions and examples for developing Azure Functions using VS Code or other cross-platform editors.
- Include CLI-based workflows for project creation, binding addition, and publishing, using Azure Functions Core Tools and .NET CLI.
- Provide Linux/macOS-specific guidance for local development, debugging, and remote debugging, including screenshots and step-by-step instructions.
- Replace or supplement PowerShell commands with .NET CLI or Bash equivalents for package management.
- Clarify which steps are Windows-specific and offer alternatives for non-Windows environments.
- Highlight cross-platform capabilities of Azure Functions and ensure parity in documentation coverage.
