Summary
The documentation demonstrates a mild Windows bias: Visual Studio Code is required (cross-platform, but often Windows-centric in Azure docs), and PowerShell examples are presented alongside CLI, but PowerShell is shown first in some places. The deployment section does provide both Azure CLI (Bash) and PowerShell examples, but the overall flow and screenshots tend to favor Windows/PowerShell patterns. There are no Linux-specific editor recommendations, and the file upload instructions are generic but illustrated with Windows-style dialogs. No Linux/macOS-only blockers are present, but Linux parity could be improved.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly mention that Visual Studio Code is cross-platform, and suggest alternative editors for Linux/macOS users (e.g., Vim, nano, Sublime Text).
  • Present CLI (Bash) examples before PowerShell, or alternate their order to avoid Windows-first bias.
  • Include screenshots of Cloud Shell in both Bash and PowerShell modes, or clarify that both environments are supported equally.
  • Add notes on file upload from Linux/macOS (e.g., using scp, curl, or native file dialogs).
  • Ensure terminology and instructions do not assume Windows file paths or conventions.
