Summary:
The documentation is generally cross-platform in intent, focusing on Visual Studio Code and the Azure Functions extension, which are available on Windows, macOS, and Linux. However, there are subtle signs of Windows bias: troubleshooting steps specifically mention Windows and WSL Bash, and there are no explicit Linux- or macOS-specific instructions or examples. The documentation does not provide parity in addressing potential Linux/macOS issues or terminal usage, and references to shell environments are Windows-centric.
Recommendations:
- Add explicit notes or troubleshooting steps for Linux and macOS users, such as common issues with permissions, shell environments, or dependencies.
- When mentioning Windows-specific issues (e.g., WSL Bash), also mention possible Linux/macOS equivalents or clarify if the issue is Windows-only.
- Include example terminal commands or screenshots for Linux/macOS where relevant, especially in sections about running or deploying functions.
- Ensure that all references to tools (such as Azure Functions Core Tools) clarify their cross-platform availability and provide installation instructions for all supported OSes.
- Consider adding a table or section that highlights any OS-specific considerations for Visual Studio Code and Azure Functions development.
