Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by consistently referencing PowerShell as a primary automation tool, mentioning it before CLI and other cross-platform options. Example automation workflows and scenarios (such as retrying failed jobs) are described using PowerShell and Azure Automation Runbooks, with no explicit Linux shell (Bash) or cross-platform CLI examples provided. There is a lack of Linux-specific guidance or parity in the examples, which may make Linux users feel underserved.
Recommendations
  • Provide explicit Bash/CLI examples alongside PowerShell for all automation scenarios.
  • When listing automation methods, avoid listing PowerShell first by default; alternate or group cross-platform tools (CLI, REST API, SDKs) before platform-specific ones.
  • Include sample scripts or links for Linux shell automation (e.g., Bash scripts using Azure CLI) in each scenario.
  • Highlight cross-platform automation tools (Terraform, Ansible) with equal detail and provide end-to-end examples.
  • Ensure that video and walkthrough content includes Linux/CLI demonstrations, not just PowerShell/Windows-based workflows.
