Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by explicitly recommending Windows as the operating system for the function app and not providing equivalent guidance or examples for Linux. There are no Linux-specific instructions, notes, or parity checks, and the only runtime stack specifically recommended is .NET, which is often associated with Windows. No PowerShell or Windows-only CLI commands are present, but the lack of Linux parity is notable.
Recommendations
  • Provide explicit instructions and notes for both Windows and Linux hosting options for Azure Functions, including any differences in configuration or limitations.
  • Include examples or callouts for Linux-based function apps, such as supported runtime stacks and any OS-specific considerations.
  • Avoid recommending Windows as the default or 'best experience' unless there are clear technical reasons, and if so, explain those reasons and provide guidance for Linux users.
  • Where possible, use cross-platform language and screenshots, or provide both Windows and Linux variants.
  • Add a section or note clarifying any differences in NAT gateway integration for Linux-hosted function apps.
