Summary
The documentation provides a list of tools for creating Azure Functions, including Visual Studio, Visual Studio Code, Azure CLI, Azure PowerShell, and ARM templates. While most tools are cross-platform, PowerShell and Visual Studio are Windows-centric. Additionally, when instructing users to find the tenant ID, a PowerShell command (Get-AzContext) is mentioned before the Azure Portal method, which may create a subtle Windows-first impression. However, the majority of the guide is platform-neutral, focusing on Azure Portal and web-based workflows, and examples for function code are in JavaScript (cross-platform).
Recommendations
  • When listing tools for creating Azure Functions, clarify which are cross-platform (e.g., Visual Studio Code, Azure CLI, ARM templates) and which are Windows-only (Visual Studio, Azure PowerShell).
  • Provide equivalent Linux/macOS commands (e.g., Azure CLI) alongside PowerShell commands for tasks like retrieving the tenant ID.
  • When mentioning PowerShell, avoid presenting it before cross-platform alternatives unless it is the only option.
  • Explicitly state that most steps can be performed from any OS via the Azure Portal or cross-platform tools.
