Summary
The documentation provides both Bash and PowerShell examples for every command, ensuring parity between Linux and Windows users. However, PowerShell is featured as the only Windows shell, and its examples are always presented alongside Bash, sometimes even before Bash in the tab order. There are no examples for native Windows CMD, and no explicit mention of Linux-specific tools or troubleshooting. The Dockerfile and shell scripts use Linux conventions, but the overall pattern is to treat Bash and PowerShell as equally primary, which can be seen as a mild Windows bias due to PowerShell's prominence.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit notes clarifying that Bash examples are for Linux/macOS and PowerShell for Windows, to help users choose the right instructions.
  • Consider including Windows CMD examples for basic Azure CLI usage, or at least mention that PowerShell is the recommended shell for Windows.
  • Add troubleshooting tips or notes for common Linux-specific issues (e.g., file permissions, shell compatibility) to improve Linux parity.
  • Ensure that Bash examples are presented first, or clarify the intended audience for each shell to avoid implicit prioritization.
  • Reference Linux distributions (e.g., Ubuntu, CentOS) when discussing prerequisites or environment setup, not just generic 'Docker'.
