Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a mild Windows bias, particularly in the section on uploading static files to Azure Blob Storage. It explicitly instructs users to 'Open Windows Command Prompt, PowerShell, or other command shell,' listing Windows environments first and not mentioning Linux or macOS shells by name. No Linux- or macOS-specific instructions or examples are provided, and there is no mention of platform-specific considerations for those environments. The rest of the guide uses cross-platform tools (Git, Node.js, Azure CLI) and generic shell commands, but the explicit Windows-first language and lack of Linux/macOS parity in the upload step stand out.
Recommendations:
- Replace 'Open Windows Command Prompt, PowerShell, or other command shell.' with 'Open your preferred command shell (such as Windows Command Prompt, PowerShell, Bash, or Terminal on Linux/macOS).' to acknowledge non-Windows environments.
- Wherever possible, provide explicit instructions or notes for Linux and macOS users, especially in steps involving the command line.
- Consider including example commands or screenshots from both Windows and Linux/macOS shells to demonstrate true cross-platform support.
- Review the rest of the documentation for any subtle Windows-first language or assumptions and update to be more inclusive of all platforms.
