Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by presenting all command-line examples in the context of PowerShell, using Windows-specific syntax (e.g., $() for variable assignment), and explicitly stating that Azure CLI is run in a PowerShell instance. There are no equivalent Linux/bash examples, nor any mention of how to adapt the commands for Linux or macOS environments. The documentation assumes a Windows user experience throughout the resource deployment and scripting sections.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent bash/Linux/macOS command examples alongside PowerShell examples, especially for Azure CLI usage.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI can be run on multiple platforms and provide guidance for Linux/macOS users (e.g., variable assignment, command substitution differences).
  • Avoid language that implies PowerShell is the default or only environment; instead, use cross-platform-neutral phrasing.
  • Add notes or callouts where syntax or behavior differs between Windows/PowerShell and Linux/bash.
  • Include a complete script example for bash/zsh, highlighting any necessary changes (e.g., $(...) vs $(), quoting, array syntax).
