Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Windows-centric development tools (Visual Studio, Visual Studio Code) and workflows, referencing Windows-specific patterns (such as NuGet package manager), and omitting explicit Linux or cross-platform alternatives for key steps. While Azure CLI is used (which is cross-platform), the instructions and examples for creating and publishing Azure Functions are heavily oriented toward Windows development environments, and there is a lack of Linux-specific guidance or troubleshooting. There are also references to shell escaping issues, but these are only briefly mentioned without concrete Linux/Bash examples.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit instructions and examples for Linux users, such as using the Azure CLI and dotnet CLI in Bash or other Linux shells for all steps (creating, building, and publishing Azure Functions).
  • Include Linux-specific troubleshooting tips, especially for shell escaping and environment differences.
  • Provide parity in tool recommendations, such as mentioning JetBrains Rider or other cross-platform IDEs alongside Visual Studio.
  • Clarify that the Azure CLI commands work cross-platform, and provide example terminal commands for both Windows (CMD/PowerShell) and Linux (Bash/Zsh).
  • Where Visual Studio or NuGet Package Manager is mentioned, also describe how to perform the same actions using the dotnet CLI on Linux.
  • Add screenshots or terminal output examples from Linux environments where applicable.
