Summary
The documentation page exhibits a notable Windows bias, especially in the packaging and deployment sections. The only tool mentioned for packaging (.cspkg) is CSPack, with its location and usage described exclusively for Windows environments (e.g., 'C:\Program Files...', 'Microsoft Azure Command Prompt'). Example commands are shown in Windows CMD syntax, and there is no mention of Linux/macOS alternatives or guidance for non-Windows users. Visual Studio and PowerShell are referenced as deployment options before alternatives, and the Compute Emulator is described as a Windows-only tool. No Linux-specific instructions, examples, or parity tools are provided.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly document how Linux/macOS users can install and use CSPack, or clarify if it is Windows-only.
  • If CSPack is not available on Linux/macOS, suggest alternative packaging workflows (e.g., using Azure CLI, Docker, or cross-platform SDKs).
  • Provide example commands using Bash or PowerShell Core, and clarify any platform-specific differences.
  • Mention cross-platform deployment options (e.g., Azure CLI, REST API) before or alongside Windows-centric tools.
  • Clarify the availability and limitations of the Compute Emulator for non-Windows platforms.
  • Add a section or callout for Linux/macOS users outlining supported workflows and any known limitations.
