Summary
The documentation consistently presents PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) examples alongside Azure CLI, often listing PowerShell before CLI in explanations and code samples. There is a strong focus on PowerShell-specific switches, parameters, and output handling, with detailed PowerShell scripting shown. No explicit Linux shell (bash) or cross-platform scripting examples are provided beyond Azure CLI, and PowerShell is treated as a primary interface. The documentation assumes familiarity with PowerShell cmdlets and patterns, which may disadvantage Linux/macOS users who do not use PowerShell.
Recommendations
  • Ensure Azure CLI examples are always presented first, as it is natively cross-platform and more familiar to Linux/macOS users.
  • Where PowerShell scripting is shown, provide equivalent bash scripting examples for common tasks (e.g., looping over results, variable assignment).
  • Clarify that PowerShell Core is available cross-platform, but also provide bash/zsh examples for Linux/macOS users.
  • Avoid using Windows-specific terminology (e.g., 'module', 'cmdlet') without explanation or Linux equivalents.
  • Explicitly mention that all Azure CLI commands work identically on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and highlight any OS-specific considerations.
  • Add a section or callout for Linux/macOS users, linking to relevant shell scripting resources or Azure CLI documentation.
