Summary
The documentation provides command-line examples for Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell, with PowerShell examples included for each relevant section. There are no explicit Linux- or Bash-specific examples, and PowerShell is presented as a primary alternative to Azure CLI. The use of PowerShell commands and terminology may implicitly favor Windows users, and there is no mention of Linux-native tools or shell environments beyond the generic 'nslookup' utility. The ordering of examples sometimes places PowerShell before or alongside CLI, but never Bash or Linux-specific guidance.
Recommendations
  • Add Bash/Linux shell examples where appropriate, especially for common tasks (e.g., using curl/jq for JSON parsing, or Bash scripting for automation).
  • Clarify that Azure CLI commands work cross-platform and can be run in Bash, PowerShell, or other shells.
  • Where PowerShell is shown, consider also providing equivalent Bash or shell script snippets for Linux/macOS users.
  • Explicitly mention that 'nslookup' is available on both Windows and Linux, or suggest alternatives like 'dig' for Linux users.
  • Avoid assuming PowerShell as the default scripting environment; highlight cross-platform options.
  • Consider reordering examples to present Azure CLI (which is cross-platform) before PowerShell, and add Bash/Linux-native examples where possible.
