Summary
The documentation page exhibits moderate Windows bias, particularly in the section on setting up a local SQL Server instance using Docker. PowerShell scripts are provided for database setup and validation, with no equivalent Bash or shell examples for Linux/macOS users. The instructions and troubleshooting steps reference Windows tools and folder structures first, and do not offer explicit Linux/macOS alternatives. While Docker is cross-platform, the use of PowerShell and lack of Bash examples creates friction for non-Windows users.
Recommendations
  • Provide Bash/zsh shell script equivalents for all PowerShell commands, especially for Docker-based SQL Server setup and validation.
  • Explicitly mention that the Docker setup works on Linux/macOS, and clarify any OS-specific differences (such as file paths or Docker command syntax).
  • Add troubleshooting guidance for Linux/macOS users, including how to locate the mssql-tools folder and run sqlcmd.
  • Ensure that instructions for editing files (like local.settings.json) and running Azure Functions Core Tools are OS-neutral or include platform-specific notes.
  • Where possible, show both Windows and Linux/macOS command examples side-by-side.
