Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by providing only Azure PowerShell (Windows-centric) instructions for provisioning the service principal, referencing the AzureAD PowerShell module (which is primarily used on Windows), and omitting equivalent CLI or Bash examples. No Linux/macOS-specific instructions or cross-platform alternatives (such as Azure CLI or REST API) are provided for key setup steps. The documentation assumes the use of the Azure Portal and PowerShell, both of which are more familiar to Windows users.
Recommendations:
- Add equivalent Azure CLI (az) commands for provisioning the service principal and other setup steps, as Azure CLI is cross-platform and widely used on Linux/macOS.
- Explicitly mention that all PowerShell steps can be performed on Linux/macOS using Azure CLI or Bash, and provide those examples side-by-side.
- Where possible, provide REST API alternatives for automation scenarios.
- Clarify in prerequisites that PowerShell is not required and that users on Linux/macOS can follow along using CLI or portal.
- Review all code snippets and ensure parity between Windows (PowerShell) and Linux/macOS (CLI/Bash) instructions.
