Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and PowerShell examples, but PowerShell is featured as a primary method alongside CLI, and is referenced in links and instructions. PowerShell is a Windows-centric tool, and its inclusion as a main example (rather than, for instance, Bash or shell scripts) reflects a Windows bias. There are no Linux-specific shell examples, and the documentation does not mention Linux-native tools or patterns. The order of examples sometimes places PowerShell before REST, and links to PowerShell-based workflows are prominent.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Bash/shell script examples for Linux users, especially for REST calls (e.g., using curl or wget).
  • Clarify that Azure CLI is cross-platform and highlight its use on Linux and macOS.
  • Include instructions or links for installing and using Azure CLI on Linux.
  • Avoid presenting PowerShell as a default or primary method; balance with Linux-native approaches.
  • Add notes or sections for Linux-specific considerations, such as authentication methods or environment setup.
  • Where PowerShell is referenced, also provide equivalent Bash or shell commands.
