Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. PowerShell is consistently presented as a primary method for performing Azure subscription creation tasks, with explicit instructions for installing PowerShell modules and using PowerShell cmdlets. In several sections, PowerShell is listed before Azure CLI, and REST API, and there are references to Windows-specific tooling (PowerShellGet). While Azure CLI and REST API examples are provided, PowerShell is sometimes given special installation instructions, and in some steps, PowerShell is mentioned even when not supported. There is no mention of Linux-specific considerations, nor is there guidance for non-Windows environments when PowerShell is referenced.
Recommendations
  • Ensure Azure CLI examples are presented before or alongside PowerShell, as CLI is cross-platform.
  • Add explicit notes about cross-platform compatibility for Azure CLI and REST API, and clarify when PowerShell is Windows-only or requires extra steps on Linux/macOS.
  • Remove unnecessary PowerShell installation instructions unless CLI equivalents are also provided.
  • Where PowerShell is not supported, avoid mentioning it or provide alternative Linux/macOS guidance.
  • Include a section or note on using Azure CLI and REST API from Linux/macOS, and link to relevant setup guides.
  • Audit for any references to Windows-only tools (e.g., PowerShellGet) and provide parity for Linux/macOS users.
