Summary
The documentation page for migrating Azure Functions from version 3.x to 4.x shows a moderate Windows bias. The initial step to identify function apps to migrate provides only a PowerShell script, with no equivalent Azure CLI, Bash, or Linux-native example. PowerShell is a Windows-centric tool, and its exclusive use may create friction for Linux/macOS users. Additionally, references to Azure PowerShell are made before mentioning cross-platform alternatives. However, the rest of the migration instructions are largely language-agnostic or use cross-platform tools (such as Azure Functions Core Tools), and there is no evidence of Windows-only tools or patterns in the core migration steps.
Recommendations
- Provide an Azure CLI or Bash example alongside the PowerShell script for identifying function apps to migrate.
- Explicitly mention that Azure PowerShell is available cross-platform, but offer alternatives for users who prefer CLI or Bash.
- Where scripts or commands are given, ensure both Windows and Linux/macOS equivalents are presented, or clarify cross-platform compatibility.
- Review the documentation for other places where Windows-first tools are mentioned and add Linux/macOS parity.
