Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively referencing the Kudu console (which is Windows-centric in its UI and terminology) for package installation and file management. The instructions for running commands and uploading files are tailored to the Kudu interface, which is more familiar to Windows users. There are no alternative instructions for Linux-based workflows, such as using SSH, SCP, or Bash in the Azure Cloud Shell. Additionally, the use of 'CMD' in the Kudu console and the absence of Linux-native command-line examples or guidance further reinforce a Windows-first approach.
Recommendations
  • Provide alternative instructions for Linux users, such as using Azure Cloud Shell (Bash) or SSH to interact with the function app's file system.
  • Include examples of using SCP or SFTP to upload files like package.json, in addition to the Kudu drag-and-drop method.
  • Clarify that Kudu is accessible from any OS, but explain the differences in command-line environments (CMD vs Bash) and provide Bash equivalents where appropriate.
  • Mention cross-platform tools and workflows explicitly, ensuring parity for both Windows and Linux users throughout the documentation.
