Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by consistently listing Windows-centric tools (PowerShell, ARM templates via PowerShell, and references to Windows installation paths) before or alongside cross-platform alternatives. PowerShell is given its own dedicated section, with prerequisites and examples, while Linux-specific tools or shell examples (e.g., Bash) are not mentioned. ARM template export instructions include Azure PowerShell and Azure CLI, but PowerShell is listed as a primary method and links to Windows-specific installation guides. There are no Linux shell script examples or references to Linux-specific workflows.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Linux/Bash examples for scripting tasks alongside PowerShell, especially for deployment and resource management.
  • Reference cross-platform installation guides for Azure CLI and PowerShell, not just Windows-specific ones.
  • Include instructions for exporting ARM templates and managing resources using Bash or other Linux-native tools.
  • Balance the order of tool presentation (e.g., CLI before PowerShell, or present both together) to avoid Windows-first impression.
  • Highlight platform-neutral approaches where possible, and clarify which steps or tools work identically on Linux and macOS.
