Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows, with all development and deployment instructions centered on Visual Studio (Windows-only), explicit instructions to select Windows as the OS for the Function App, and publishing guidance exclusively for 'Azure Function App (Windows)'. There are no examples or guidance for Linux/macOS users, nor are alternative tools or workflows (such as VS Code, Azure CLI, or cross-platform .NET tooling) mentioned. Package installation is shown only via PowerShell/NuGet Package Manager Console, which is also Windows-centric.
Recommendations
  • Add instructions for developing and testing Azure Functions using cross-platform tools like VS Code and the Azure Functions Core Tools CLI.
  • Include examples for package installation using dotnet CLI (e.g., 'dotnet add package ...'), which works on Linux/macOS.
  • Provide guidance for creating and publishing Azure Function Apps on Linux, including selecting Linux as the OS in the portal and using Azure CLI or VS Code for deployment.
  • Mention supported development environments for macOS and Linux, and link to relevant documentation.
  • Ensure screenshots and step-by-step instructions are not exclusively tied to Windows/Visual Studio.
