Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a notable Windows bias. PowerShell is frequently referenced as the primary or sole command-line tool for managing and retrieving deployment files (.csdef, .cscfg), with no mention of Linux/macOS equivalents (such as Azure CLI or Bash scripting) for these tasks. Examples and links for PowerShell are provided before CLI or REST API alternatives, and some operations (like updating certificates or deployment files) only mention PowerShell and REST API, omitting CLI or cross-platform tooling. Visual Studio is referenced for update workflows, which is predominantly a Windows tool, with no alternatives for Linux/macOS users. There are no explicit Linux/macOS examples or guidance for users on those platforms.
Recommendations
- Add Azure CLI examples and links for all operations currently described with PowerShell, especially for retrieving .csdef and .cscfg files.
- Explicitly mention cross-platform alternatives to Visual Studio (such as VS Code or command-line deployment tools) for update workflows.
- Where PowerShell is referenced, clarify that Azure CLI and REST API are also supported and provide parity in instructions.
- Include sample commands for Linux/macOS environments, and note any platform-specific caveats.
- Reorder examples so that cross-platform tools (CLI, REST API) are presented before or alongside Windows-specific tools.
