Summary
The documentation provides examples for Azure Portal, Azure CLI, and Azure PowerShell. While Azure CLI is cross-platform, the explicit inclusion of Azure PowerShell (which is most commonly used on Windows and follows Windows scripting conventions) and the absence of any Linux- or bash-specific examples (such as using curl or jq, or mentioning Linux shell environments) demonstrates a Windows-centric bias. Additionally, PowerShell is given equal prominence to CLI, and there is no mention of Linux-native tools or workflows.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit bash/shell examples for Linux users, such as using curl to download the OpenAPI spec and az CLI commands in a Linux shell context.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI commands work on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and provide any necessary shell syntax differences.
  • If PowerShell is included, consider also including bash or zsh examples to ensure parity for Linux/macOS users.
  • Mention Linux and macOS compatibility in the prerequisites and tool installation sections.
  • Where possible, avoid Windows-centric terminology (such as 'cmdlet') or explain it for non-Windows users.
