Summary
The documentation provides examples for Azure CLI, Azure PowerShell, and the Azure Portal. While Azure CLI is cross-platform, the inclusion of Azure PowerShell (which is traditionally Windows-centric, though now available cross-platform) and the absence of Linux-specific shell examples (such as Bash or scripting with jq/curl) indicates a bias toward Windows tooling. Additionally, PowerShell examples are given equal prominence to CLI, which can reinforce Windows-first patterns for users. There are no explicit Linux shell or scripting examples, nor guidance for Linux users beyond the CLI.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux/Bash shell examples using az CLI and common Linux tools (e.g., piping to jq, curl, grep) to demonstrate usage in Linux environments.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI is cross-platform and provide explicit instructions for running queries in Linux/macOS terminals.
  • Consider including a section or tab for 'Linux Shell' or 'Bash' to balance the PowerShell tab.
  • If PowerShell is shown, note its cross-platform availability and provide installation/usage notes for Linux/macOS.
  • Review documentation for any assumptions about Windows environments and add notes for Linux-specific considerations (e.g., authentication, environment variables, output formatting).
