Summary
The documentation page exhibits Windows bias by listing Azure PowerShell as a primary method for creating public IP addresses, alongside Azure CLI and the portal. PowerShell is a Windows-centric tool, and its mention before any Linux-specific alternatives (e.g., Bash scripts or Linux-native tools) reinforces a Windows-first approach. There are no Linux shell or Bash examples, and no mention of Linux-specific workflows for resource creation. The REST API example uses Ubuntu as the VM image, but this does not offset the bias in the tooling recommendations.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Bash or shell script examples for creating public IP addresses using Azure CLI, tailored for Linux users.
  • Reorder the list of resource creation methods to mention Azure CLI before PowerShell, as CLI is cross-platform.
  • Include a note clarifying that Azure CLI works natively on Linux, macOS, and Windows, while PowerShell is primarily Windows-focused.
  • Provide links to Linux-specific documentation or tutorials for Azure resource management.
  • Avoid listing Windows tools (PowerShell) before cross-platform alternatives unless contextually necessary.
