We can use multiple development environments to develop Azure Functions:
- Using Azure portal
- Using the Azure CLI with Azure Functions Core Tools
- Using Visual Studio or Visual Studio Code
- Using other IDEs such as Eclipse or IntelliJ IDEA
We can also use multiple languages and platforms to create our functions:
- Java/Maven
- Python
- C# (.NET Core and Scripts)
- JavaScript/Node
- F# (.NET Core)
As you can see, multiple platform and development environment combinations can be used to create Azure Functions. This means that any operating system including Windows, macOS, and Linux can be used as a development station.
