Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Windows-centric tools and workflows (Azure PowerShell, Visual Studio Code) are mentioned before or more prominently than their Linux equivalents. The only explicit command-line examples provided are for PowerShell and Azure CLI, but no Linux shell (bash) or cross-platform scripting examples are shown. The instructions for creating resources (Key Vault, managed identity, role assignments, etc.) are exclusively portal-based or reference PowerShell/CLI, with no mention of Linux-specific nuances or alternative editors. Visual Studio Code is recommended as the editor, which is cross-platform but often associated with Windows workflows.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit bash examples for Azure CLI commands, showing usage on Linux/macOS terminals.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI commands work on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and provide any necessary platform-specific notes (e.g., file paths, environment setup).
  • Include instructions for using alternative editors (such as Vim, nano, or other Linux-native editors) for creating Bicep/JSON files.
  • When listing prerequisites, mention Linux and macOS as supported platforms for Azure CLI and Bicep, and provide links to installation instructions for those platforms.
  • Where PowerShell is mentioned, clarify that Azure CLI is fully supported and often preferred on Linux/macOS.
  • Consider adding screenshots or terminal output from Linux environments to demonstrate parity.
