Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Azure CLI and Azure portal are used for most examples, but Azure PowerShell is also mentioned as an alternative for resource provider registration. All portal instructions implicitly assume Windows usage, and all CLI examples use Azure CLI, which is cross-platform, but there are no explicit Linux shell or macOS-specific instructions. The documentation references Windows domains (login.windows.net) and does not provide parity for Linux-specific troubleshooting or installation patterns. Additionally, PowerShell is mentioned before Bash/Helm in some cases, and there are no examples using native Linux tools or package managers. The FAQ section clarifies that many policy definitions only apply to Linux pods, but does not provide guidance for Linux users or mention Linux-specific caveats beyond this.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit instructions for Linux and macOS environments, including shell commands and references to package managers (e.g., apt, yum, brew) for installing Azure CLI.
  • Provide parity for PowerShell examples by including Bash equivalents where possible.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI is cross-platform and provide troubleshooting steps for Linux users (e.g., permissions, environment variables).
  • Include Linux-specific troubleshooting steps, such as log file locations, SELinux/AppArmor caveats, or systemd service management.
  • Avoid referencing Windows domains or tools exclusively; where possible, mention that the domains are accessed from any OS.
  • In portal instructions, clarify that the Azure portal is accessible from any OS and provide screenshots or steps relevant to Linux users.
  • Where Windows-specific limitations are mentioned (e.g., Windows pods not supporting security contexts), provide guidance for Linux users and highlight Linux advantages.
