Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several areas: Windows tools and patterns are mentioned first or exclusively (e.g., Visual Studio, Windows MSI installer, Windows paths), PowerShell and Windows command examples are provided, and Linux equivalents (such as bash, Linux file paths, or Linux-specific instructions) are missing or relegated to secondary status. There is a lack of parity in examples and instructions for Linux/macOS users, particularly around local development, tool installation, and deployment.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux/macOS equivalents for all Windows-specific instructions, such as installation of Azure Functions Core Tools (e.g., apt, brew, or manual install).
- Include bash/zsh command examples alongside PowerShell and cmd examples.
- Mention cross-platform editors (e.g., VS Code) before or alongside Windows-only tools (e.g., Visual Studio), and clarify which instructions apply to which OS.
- Use platform-neutral file paths and environment variable references, or show both Windows and Linux/macOS formats.
- Explicitly state when a tool or feature is Windows-only, and offer alternatives for Linux/macOS users.
- Add troubleshooting and configuration guidance for Linux/macOS environments, especially for local development and deployment.
