Issue description

in the set-up-your-development-environment docs, in the section about SPFX_SERVE_TENANT_DOMAIN there are links to voitanos. That company is folding. Recommend getting a cut of those docs into the official SPFx documentation. Could be as simple as a few commands that can be used to set the environment variable.

Hello @brianpmccullough,

Hello @brianpmccullough,

We reviewed the documentation and can confirm that the referenced Voitanos articles are currently accessible. However, we understand your concern regarding the dependency on third-party content and the potential impact if that content becomes unavailable in the future.

We have shared this feedback with the engineering team for consideration. They will evaluate whether the relevant guidance for configuring the SPFX_SERVE_TENANT_DOMAIN environment variable should be incorporated directly into the official SPFx documentation or whether alternative Microsoft-hosted guidance should be provided.
