Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell examples for creating Azure resources, but consistently lists Azure PowerShell as an alternative to Azure CLI, which can be interpreted as a Windows-first approach. There are no explicit Linux-only instructions or examples, and PowerShell is highlighted as a primary tool alongside the cross-platform Azure CLI. However, the core function development and local testing steps are platform-agnostic, using only .NET and Azure Functions Core Tools commands.
Recommendations
  • Clearly indicate that both Azure CLI and PowerShell are cross-platform, but highlight Azure CLI as the default for Linux/macOS users.
  • Present Azure CLI examples before PowerShell examples, or group them in tabs labeled by OS (e.g., Windows, Linux, macOS).
  • Explicitly mention that all steps (except PowerShell) work on Linux/macOS, and provide any necessary Linux-specific notes (such as shell syntax differences, if any).
  • Add a short section or callout for Linux/macOS users, confirming that the instructions are fully supported on those platforms.
  • If referencing PowerShell, clarify that it is available cross-platform, but that Bash or other shells are also supported for Linux users.
