Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by providing only PowerShell scripts for advanced resource discovery (e.g., identifying Traffic Manager endpoints), referencing PowerShell as the primary scripting tool, and omitting equivalent Bash or cross-platform CLI script examples. While Azure CLI and REST API commands are mentioned for certificate management, all automation and scripting guidance defaults to PowerShell, which is Windows-centric. There are no Linux shell (Bash) or cross-platform scripting examples, and PowerShell is introduced before or instead of alternatives.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent Bash (Azure CLI) scripts for all PowerShell automation examples, especially for resource discovery and Traffic Manager endpoint identification.
- When referencing scripts, explicitly state if they are cross-platform or provide both Windows (PowerShell) and Linux (Bash) versions.
- Instruct users on how to use Azure CLI for all scenarios where PowerShell is currently recommended, ensuring parity for Linux and macOS users.
- Where possible, use Azure CLI as the primary example, as it is cross-platform, and mention PowerShell as an alternative.
- Review all external script references (e.g., GitHub) and ensure that Linux-compatible versions or instructions are available and linked.
