Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a bias toward Windows environments by providing only PowerShell-based instructions for administrative tasks, such as creating service principals and installing modules. There are no equivalent CLI or shell examples for Linux/macOS users. The troubleshooting and setup steps assume access to PowerShell and the Microsoft Graph PowerShell module, which are native to Windows and require extra steps or workarounds on other platforms. No mention is made of Azure CLI, Bash, or cross-platform alternatives, and Windows tooling is presented first and exclusively.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent instructions using Azure CLI or Microsoft Graph API via Bash/curl for Linux/macOS users.
  • Add cross-platform examples for administrative tasks, such as creating service principals and granting permissions.
  • Explicitly mention that PowerShell commands can be run on Linux/macOS (with installation steps), or offer alternatives.
  • Reorder examples or provide parallel instructions so that Windows and Linux/macOS users are equally supported.
  • Include troubleshooting steps for non-Windows environments, such as installing PowerShell Core or using REST APIs.
