Summary
The documentation generally provides a cross-platform experience, but there are subtle signs of Windows bias. Windows terminology ("command prompt") is used alongside "terminal" without explicit mention of Linux or macOS shells. Remote build is recommended specifically for Windows users, and local build is discouraged for Windows, but Linux is not explicitly highlighted as the primary local development environment. There is a lack of explicit Linux/macOS CLI examples (e.g., bash/zsh), and some folder structure examples use Windows-centric notation (e.g., <project_root>/). No PowerShell-specific commands are shown, but the overall pattern assumes familiarity with Windows development environments and tools.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly mention Linux and macOS as supported and recommended environments for local development, especially in sections discussing local builds.
  • When referring to the command line, use 'terminal (Linux/macOS)' and 'command prompt (Windows)' or provide separate instructions/examples for each platform.
  • Provide bash/zsh shell command examples alongside any Windows command prompt or PowerShell examples, especially for common tasks like running pip or publishing functions.
  • Clarify in folder structure examples that the layout applies to all platforms, and use platform-agnostic path notation (e.g., <project_root>/ instead of <project_root>\).
  • Highlight any Linux/macOS-specific considerations or advantages, such as native support for certain features or better compatibility with Azure Functions hosting.
