Summary:
The documentation provides extensive Azure PowerShell examples and references, which are primarily Windows-centric. PowerShell is featured prominently alongside Azure CLI, and in some cases, PowerShell is the only scripting example provided for certain tasks (e.g., assigning user-assigned identities to Functions). There is no mention of Linux-specific shell commands or tools (such as Bash scripts or curl/wget for HTTP requests), and PowerShell is presented as a default automation tool, which may not be as familiar or available to Linux users. Additionally, PowerShell examples are sometimes given before or instead of more cross-platform alternatives.
Recommendations:
- Add Bash or shell script examples for all tasks currently demonstrated with PowerShell, especially for token retrieval and identity assignment/removal.
- Where HTTP requests are shown, provide curl or wget command-line examples in addition to PowerShell's Invoke-RestMethod.
- Clarify that Azure CLI is fully cross-platform and, where possible, prefer it over PowerShell for automation examples.
- Explicitly mention Linux/macOS compatibility in relevant sections, and ensure that all code snippets are runnable on those platforms.
- For sections where PowerShell is the only option (e.g., assigning user-assigned identities to Functions), state the limitation clearly and provide any available workarounds for Linux users.
