Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a mild Windows bias. While most instructions are cross-platform (using Node.js, npm, and Azure CLI), there are several references that prioritize or exclusively mention Windows tools or patterns. Notably, the instructions refer to 'command prompt' (a Windows term) instead of 'terminal' or 'shell', and a key link for deploying Node.js apps points to a Windows PowerShell-based tutorial, with no equivalent Linux/Mac instructions or links. There are no explicit Linux shell or macOS Terminal examples, and the language used assumes a Windows environment.
Recommendations
  • Replace or supplement 'command prompt' with 'terminal' or 'shell' to be inclusive of Linux and macOS users.
  • Where links are provided for deploying Node.js applications (e.g., 'Node.js Cloud Service using Windows PowerShell'), add equivalent links or instructions for Linux and macOS environments.
  • Explicitly mention that all npm and Node.js commands work on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and provide example shell commands where appropriate.
  • If referencing editors, note that Visual Studio Code is cross-platform, or suggest alternatives available on Linux/macOS.
  • Review included snippets and referenced tutorials to ensure they do not contain Windows-specific commands or paths, or provide alternatives if they do.
