Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: PowerShell is used for key deployment and cluster creation examples, and is the only scripting language shown for ARM template deployment and enabling encryption at host. Windows-centric tools and patterns (PowerShell, Azure portal UI) are mentioned before their CLI or Linux equivalents, and there are no explicit Linux shell (bash) examples for cluster creation or key management. Recovery instructions reference PowerShell cmdlets before CLI commands. The documentation lacks parity for Linux users, who may prefer bash or other shell scripting approaches.
Recommendations
  • Add bash shell script examples for ARM template deployment and cluster creation, alongside PowerShell examples.
  • When listing command-line examples, present Azure CLI (cross-platform) before PowerShell, or at least in parallel.
  • Include instructions for Linux users, such as using bash, curl, or other native Linux tools for key management and deployment.
  • Reference Azure CLI and REST API as primary automation interfaces, with PowerShell as an alternative for Windows users.
  • Ensure recovery instructions (e.g., key recovery) include both CLI and PowerShell commands, with equal prominence.
  • Clarify that all operations can be performed from Linux, macOS, and Windows, and provide explicit cross-platform guidance.
