Summary
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. PowerShell is featured prominently as a primary automation method alongside the Azure portal and CLI, with detailed step-by-step instructions and code samples. The prerequisites and instructions reference Windows-specific tools (PowerShell) and patterns, such as module installation and usage, without mentioning Linux shell equivalents or alternatives (e.g., Bash, Cloud Shell, or native Linux scripting). The CLI examples are present, but PowerShell is often listed before CLI, and there is no explicit mention of Linux-specific considerations or parity in the examples.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Bash shell examples for Linux users, especially for CLI commands, showing how to run them in native Linux environments.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI is fully cross-platform and can be used on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and provide installation links for all platforms.
  • In the prerequisites, mention how to prepare the environment for Linux (e.g., installing Azure CLI via apt, yum, or curl), and reference Azure Cloud Shell as a platform-agnostic option.
  • Avoid listing PowerShell before CLI, or alternate the order to avoid perceived prioritization.
  • Where PowerShell-specific instructions are given, provide equivalent Bash or Linux shell scripting examples if possible.
  • Explicitly state that all operations can be performed from Linux, macOS, or Windows, and highlight any platform-specific caveats.
