Summary
The documentation demonstrates a mild Windows bias, primarily in the tools and command-line examples provided. Windows-centric tools such as Visual Studio and Azure PowerShell are mentioned explicitly and often before cross-platform or Linux-native alternatives. The only explicit command-line example for retrieving the tenant ID uses PowerShell, with no mention of Bash or Azure CLI equivalents. Visual Studio (Windows-only) is listed before Visual Studio Code (cross-platform) as a function creation tool. There are no Linux-specific instructions or examples, and the documentation assumes familiarity with Windows-based workflows and tools.
Recommendations
  • When listing tools for creating Azure Functions, mention cross-platform options (e.g., Visual Studio Code, Azure CLI) before or alongside Windows-only tools like Visual Studio.
  • Provide Azure CLI (bash) equivalents for all PowerShell commands, especially for common tasks like retrieving tenant IDs.
  • Explicitly state when steps or tools are cross-platform, and provide guidance for Linux/macOS users where applicable.
  • Include screenshots or instructions from non-Windows environments (e.g., terminal, VS Code on Linux/macOS) to demonstrate parity.
  • Audit all command-line and tool references to ensure Linux users are equally supported and not required to use Windows-specific tooling.
