Summary:
The documentation page exhibits a moderate Windows bias, primarily through the exclusive mention of Windows-centric tools (such as Azurite emulator and Visual Studio Code commands) and a lack of explicit Linux/macOS instructions or terminal commands. While the language pivots cover multiple programming languages, there are no explicit examples or notes for Linux or macOS users regarding command-line differences, emulator usage, or environment-specific setup. The instructions for running and debugging functions assume a Visual Studio Code GUI workflow, which is more common on Windows, and do not provide CLI alternatives or mention cross-platform differences.
Recommendations:
- Add explicit instructions or notes for Linux/macOS users, especially for installing and running Azurite, and clarify any differences in command-line usage or environment setup.
- Provide CLI-based alternatives for steps currently described via Visual Studio Code GUI actions (e.g., creating functions, starting the emulator, running/debugging the app), and show equivalent Bash/zsh commands alongside PowerShell/Windows instructions.
- Mention any OS-specific prerequisites or troubleshooting tips, such as permissions, path differences, or package manager commands for installing dependencies.
- Ensure that all code snippets and setup steps are verified to work on Linux/macOS, and highlight any platform-specific considerations.
- Where possible, use neutral, cross-platform language and tools, or clearly indicate when a step is Windows-specific.
