Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Windows-centric tools and workflows (such as Azure PowerShell, Visual Studio, and migration assistants for PowerShell scripts) and referencing them before or more prominently than cross-platform or Linux-native alternatives. There is a lack of explicit Linux command-line examples, and Linux deployment tools or patterns (such as Bash scripting, Linux-native CI/CD tools, or SSH/SCP/SFTP workflows) are not mentioned. Visual Studio and PowerShell are highlighted, while Linux-first developer experiences are underrepresented.
Recommendations:
- Add explicit Linux/Bash command-line examples alongside PowerShell and Windows tool references, especially for common deployment scenarios.
- Include references to Linux-native tools and workflows (e.g., Bash scripts, SCP/SFTP, rsync, or Linux-based CI/CD pipelines) where appropriate.
- Ensure parity in documentation by providing Visual Studio Code examples for Linux/Mac users, not just Visual Studio (which is Windows-centric).
- Mention cross-platform alternatives before or alongside Windows-specific tools, rather than after.
- Highlight the use of Azure CLI (which is cross-platform) with Linux shell examples, not just as a generic tool.
- Where PowerShell is referenced, note that PowerShell Core is available cross-platform, and provide examples for both Windows PowerShell and PowerShell Core on Linux.
