Summary
The documentation occasionally demonstrates Windows bias, primarily in the tools and examples referenced for Azure Function creation and management. PowerShell and Visual Studio are mentioned alongside cross-platform options, but Windows-centric tools are listed before Linux/macOS alternatives. The guide for finding tenant IDs explicitly references PowerShell, with no Linux/macOS CLI alternative provided. The use of Kudu's CMD console is also more familiar to Windows users, though it is accessible via the portal for all platforms.
Recommendations
  • When listing tools for creating Azure Functions, mention cross-platform options (Azure CLI, Visual Studio Code) before Windows-only tools (Visual Studio, PowerShell).
  • Provide Azure CLI equivalents for PowerShell commands, especially for tasks like finding tenant IDs, to ensure Linux/macOS users have clear instructions.
  • Clarify that Kudu's debug console is accessible from any OS via the browser, and optionally mention Bash as an alternative to CMD for users more familiar with Unix shells.
  • Review screenshots and instructions to ensure they do not assume a Windows environment where not necessary.
