Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by providing a dedicated PowerShell tab and referencing PowerShell commands (e.g., Get-AzLocation) for region codes, but does not offer equivalent examples for Linux users (such as Bash/Azure CLI). The instructions for exporting and deploying templates are centered around the Azure portal and PowerShell, with no explicit mention or examples for Linux shell environments or cross-platform CLI usage. This can make it less accessible for users working on Linux or macOS systems.
Recommendations
  • Add a Bash/Azure CLI tab alongside the PowerShell tab in all code sections, showing equivalent commands for Linux/macOS users.
  • Reference Azure CLI commands for obtaining region codes (e.g., 'az account list-locations') in addition to PowerShell.
  • Ensure that all steps involving scripting or command-line tools include both PowerShell and Bash/Azure CLI examples.
  • Explicitly mention that the Azure portal and Azure CLI are cross-platform, and clarify any platform-specific differences.
  • Review all instructions and images to ensure they are not Windows-centric (e.g., file paths, screenshots) and provide alternatives where needed.
