Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing Visual Studio and its project settings in detail, with no equivalent coverage for Linux-native development environments or tools. Visual Studio (a Windows tool) is discussed first and in depth, while Visual Studio Code and Azure Functions Core Tools (which are cross-platform) are mentioned only briefly and without Linux-specific guidance or examples. There are no explicit Linux command-line examples or instructions for Linux users, and the process of pinning to a minor version is said to differ between Windows and Linux, but only a link is provided with no Linux-specific explanation or example.
Recommendations
  • Provide explicit Linux command-line examples for tasks such as changing runtime versions, pinning to minor versions, and local development.
  • Include parity in tooling instructions by offering equivalent steps for Linux-native environments (e.g., JetBrains Rider, VS Code on Linux, or CLI-only workflows) alongside Visual Studio instructions.
  • When mentioning differences between Windows and Linux (e.g., pinning to a minor version), include both sets of instructions or examples directly in the documentation.
  • Avoid presenting Windows tools or workflows first by default; consider parallel presentation or starting with cross-platform tools.
  • Add a section or callout specifically for Linux/macOS users to ensure their workflows are equally represented.
