Summary
The documentation provides examples and guidance for creating Azure Functions using a variety of tools, including Visual Studio, Visual Studio Code, Azure CLI, Azure PowerShell, and ARM templates. However, Windows-centric tools (Visual Studio, PowerShell) are mentioned before Linux/macOS-friendly options (VS Code, CLI). In the section for finding tenant IDs, PowerShell is suggested as the command-line method, with no mention of Azure CLI or other cross-platform alternatives. The use of Kudu (Advanced Tools) for editing files is also more familiar to Windows users, though it is technically available cross-platform. No Linux/macOS-specific examples or workflows are provided, and PowerShell is referenced without CLI parity.
Recommendations
- When listing tools for creating Azure Functions, mention cross-platform options (Azure CLI, Visual Studio Code) before Windows-only tools (Visual Studio, PowerShell).
- Provide Azure CLI commands alongside PowerShell commands for tasks such as finding tenant IDs, object IDs, and application IDs.
- Include explicit guidance or examples for Linux/macOS users, such as using VS Code and Azure CLI for function creation and management.
- Clarify that Kudu (Advanced Tools) is accessible from any OS via the browser, and suggest alternative file editing methods for Linux/macOS users (e.g., using FTP, Azure CLI, or VS Code remote extensions).
