Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing Azure portal and its GUI workflows (which are most familiar to Windows users), linking to instructions that default to Windows VM pivots, and omitting explicit Linux or cross-platform CLI examples for key authentication and RBAC steps. There are no PowerShell-heavy sections, but Linux-specific guidance and parity in examples are lacking.
Recommendations
- Provide explicit Linux examples for VM managed identity configuration, e.g., reference the Linux VM pivot in Azure docs and show CLI commands for Linux environments.
- Include cross-platform CLI (az CLI) workflows for RBAC assignment and managed identity setup, not just Azure portal screenshots.
- Mention and link to Linux and macOS documentation wherever VM/container setup is discussed, ensuring parity in instructions.
- Clarify that all CLI commands (e.g., az login --identity) work on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and provide sample shell commands for Linux.
- Add notes or sections for Linux administrators, especially for on-premises or non-Azure environments, to ensure inclusivity.
