Summary
The documentation page demonstrates mild Windows bias. While most of the guide is platform-neutral, there are several instances where Windows-specific tools (e.g., PowerShell, Visual Studio) are mentioned before or more prominently than Linux/macOS alternatives. For example, PowerShell is suggested for finding the tenant ID, and Visual Studio is listed before Visual Studio Code and Azure CLI as a function creation tool. The Kudu console (CMD) is referenced, which is a Windows-centric interface, and no explicit Linux/macOS shell alternatives are given. However, the core workflow and examples are not dependent on Windows, and Linux/macOS users can complete the tasks with minor adjustments.
Recommendations
  • When listing tools for creating Azure Functions, mention cross-platform options (Azure CLI, Visual Studio Code) before Windows-only tools (Visual Studio, PowerShell).
  • For command-line instructions (e.g., finding tenant ID), provide Azure CLI equivalents alongside PowerShell commands.
  • Clarify that Kudu's Debug Console supports both CMD and Bash, and show how to use Bash for editing files.
  • Add explicit notes or examples for Linux/macOS users where Windows-specific instructions are given.
  • Ensure screenshots and step-by-step instructions are not exclusively Windows-centric.
