Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively providing Azure Portal (GUI) instructions for role assignment and managed identity operations, which are most commonly accessed from Windows environments. There are no CLI-based examples (such as Azure CLI, Bash, or PowerShell), nor any Linux-specific guidance. The only automation example is via Bicep, which is platform-neutral, but the step-by-step instructions assume use of the Azure Portal, a pattern more familiar to Windows users. No Linux terminal or cross-platform command-line alternatives are presented.
Recommendations
- Add Azure CLI examples for all major operations (creating UAMI, assigning roles, etc.), with explicit Bash syntax.
- Include PowerShell examples if desired, but always present CLI/Bash examples first or alongside.
- Clarify that all operations can be performed from Linux, macOS, or Windows using the Azure CLI.
- Reference cross-platform tools and workflows, such as VS Code with Azure extensions, or GitHub Actions for automation.
- Explicitly mention platform neutrality where possible, and avoid implying that the Azure Portal is the only or preferred method.
