Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing PowerShell and Windows-centric tools before Linux equivalents, and by omitting explicit Linux/Unix command-line examples. The only explicit tooling reference for assigning permissions points to a PowerShell-based guide, and the 'Next steps' section lists PowerShell before CLI, which is more cross-platform. There are no Linux-specific instructions or examples, and the documentation does not mention Bash, shell scripting, or Linux-native tools for interacting with the REST API.
Recommendations
  • Provide explicit examples using Azure CLI (az), which is cross-platform, for all operations currently referenced via PowerShell or the Azure portal.
  • When referencing external guides (e.g., for assigning permissions), link to both PowerShell and CLI/Linux instructions, or to a neutral, cross-platform page.
  • In the 'Next steps' section, list Azure CLI before or alongside PowerShell to avoid the impression of Windows-first guidance.
  • Include example REST API invocations using curl or httpie, which are available on Linux, macOS, and Windows, to demonstrate true cross-platform usage.
  • Where scripting is discussed, mention both PowerShell and Bash/shell scripting as options for automation.
  • Audit all referenced links and ensure parity between Windows and Linux instructions throughout the documentation.
