Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows/.NET bias by primarily featuring .NET (C#) sample code and console applications, with instructions and highlighted code only for .NET. There are no Linux-specific instructions, nor are there examples for running the sample on Linux or using Linux-native tools. The main sample is for a Windows-oriented technology stack, and the instructions implicitly assume a Windows environment (e.g., console app, .NET, Azure portal UI). Although Java and JavaScript samples are linked, they are not described or highlighted, and there is no parity in walkthroughs or code snippets for those platforms.
Recommendations
- Add explicit instructions and code samples for running the authentication flow on Linux, including using Java and JavaScript sample applications.
- Provide parity in walkthroughs and highlighted code for Java and JavaScript samples, not just .NET.
- Include guidance for using cross-platform tools (e.g., Azure CLI) for steps like app registration and secret creation, rather than relying solely on Azure portal UI.
- Clarify that the sample applications can be run on Linux and provide any necessary setup steps (e.g., installing .NET Core on Linux, running Java/Node.js samples).
- Consider including troubleshooting notes or platform-specific caveats for Linux users.
