Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a mild Windows bias by referencing .NET-specific tools (such as the .NET secret manager), using configuration patterns and environment variable conventions that are most familiar to Windows/.NET developers, and omitting explicit Linux or cross-platform examples for environment variable setting or secret management. While the Azure CLI is mentioned (which is cross-platform), there are no shell-specific examples for Linux, and the documentation assumes familiarity with Windows-centric development workflows.
Recommendations:
- Add explicit Linux/macOS shell examples for setting environment variables (e.g., export Azure__SignalR__ConnectionString=...) alongside the .NET secret manager and Windows environment variable examples.
- Mention and provide examples for common Linux secret management tools (such as using environment variables in bash/zsh, or referencing Azure Key Vault from Linux-based deployments).
- Clarify that the .NET secret manager and configuration patterns are cross-platform, and provide guidance for developers working outside of Windows (e.g., on Docker, Linux VMs, or CI/CD pipelines).
- Where possible, present cross-platform or Linux-first examples before or alongside Windows/.NET-specific tools.
- Include a note or section about configuring connection strings in popular Linux deployment scenarios (such as systemd services, Docker containers, or Kubernetes pods).
