Summary:
The documentation consistently lists Visual Studio (a Windows-centric IDE) before Visual Studio Code and Azure CLI in instructions for creating and publishing Azure Functions projects. There is a notable emphasis on Visual Studio workflows, and while cross-platform tools like VS Code and Azure CLI are mentioned, they are always secondary. There are no explicit Linux-only examples or guidance, and no mention of Linux-specific tools or shell environments.
Recommendations:
- Alternate the order of instructions so that cross-platform tools like Azure CLI and Visual Studio Code are listed before Visual Studio, or present all options in parallel without preference.
- Explicitly mention that all CLI and VS Code instructions work on Linux and macOS, not just Windows.
- Add Linux shell (bash) command examples where relevant, especially for package management and project setup.
- Include a section or note highlighting Linux/macOS compatibility and any platform-specific considerations.
- Provide links to Linux/macOS-specific setup guides for Azure Functions development, if available.
