Summary
The documentation page exhibits a moderate Windows bias. Several command examples use PowerShell syntax and variables, especially in the identity and role assignment sections, which may be less familiar or directly usable for Linux users. The backup instructions reference the Azure portal's export, which includes PowerShell scripts alongside Bash scripts, but PowerShell is mentioned first. The use of Azure Cloud Shell is platform-neutral, but the presence of PowerShell-specific command blocks and variable usage (e.g., $variable) suggests a Windows-centric approach. Linux equivalents (pure Bash) are not always provided, and PowerShell commands appear before or instead of Bash alternatives in some key steps.
Recommendations
  • Provide all command examples in both Bash and PowerShell syntax, or default to Bash for cross-platform compatibility.
  • Avoid using PowerShell variable syntax ($variable) in examples unless explicitly targeting Windows users; prefer Bash syntax for general documentation.
  • When referencing downloadable scripts (e.g., in backups), clarify which are for Windows/PowerShell and which are for Linux/Bash, and present Bash options first.
  • Explicitly state that all steps can be performed on Linux, macOS, or Windows, and highlight any platform-specific caveats.
  • Where PowerShell is used, offer a Bash equivalent immediately after, especially for Azure CLI commands, which are cross-platform.
