Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias, particularly in the developer guidance section. PowerShell is highlighted with a dedicated note about the Az module, and PowerShell cmdlets are given equal prominence to Azure CLI, with explicit links and examples. References to Visual Studio and System Center Operations Manager further reinforce a Windows-centric perspective. While Azure CLI is mentioned and examples are provided, there is little to no mention of Linux-native tools, shells, or workflows, and Windows tools or patterns (e.g., Visual Studio, PowerShell) are often referenced first or exclusively.
Recommendations
  • Ensure that all command-line examples are provided for both Azure CLI and PowerShell, and clarify that Azure CLI is cross-platform and works natively on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
  • When referencing PowerShell, also mention Bash or other Linux-native shells where appropriate, especially for scripting and automation scenarios.
  • Include examples or guidance for Linux/macOS users, such as using Bash scripts, connecting from Linux environments, or integrating with Linux-based developer tools.
  • Avoid assuming Visual Studio as the default IDE; mention alternatives like VS Code or JetBrains Rider, and provide instructions for configuring Application Insights or other services from non-Windows environments.
  • Where Windows-specific tools or workflows are discussed (e.g., System Center Operations Manager), add notes or links to equivalent Linux-native solutions or clarify if no equivalent exists.
  • Review the ordering of tool mentions to avoid always listing Windows/PowerShell first; alternate or list cross-platform tools (like Azure CLI) before platform-specific ones.
