Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively providing Azure PowerShell examples for scripting, referencing Microsoft accounts (with links to Windows Server documentation), and omitting any Linux-specific command-line alternatives (such as Azure CLI or Bash). The PowerShell instructions are detailed and prominent, while no equivalent Linux/Bash/CLI examples are given. Additionally, the prerequisites and instructions focus on PowerShell and Microsoft-centric identity management, reinforcing a Windows-first approach.
Recommendations
  • Add Azure CLI (az) examples for all scripting tasks, including user and role assignment, to provide parity for Linux/macOS users.
  • Reference Microsoft account documentation that is platform-neutral, or clarify that non-Windows users can use Microsoft accounts.
  • Explicitly mention that Azure Cloud Shell supports Bash as well as PowerShell, and provide Bash/CLI instructions.
  • Include notes or sections for Linux/macOS users, highlighting any differences or additional steps required.
  • Ensure screenshots and UI instructions are not Windows-centric, and clarify that the Azure portal is cross-platform.
