Summary
The documentation provides examples for Azure CLI, Azure PowerShell, and ARM templates. While the CLI and ARM template examples are cross-platform, the PowerShell examples are Windows-centric and presented in full detail. Additionally, the PowerShell tab appears before the ARM template tab, and the ARM template section references both Linux and Windows but links to the Windows template first. There is no explicit Linux shell scripting example (e.g., Bash), and PowerShell is given equal or greater prominence than CLI, which is more cross-platform. There is a slight preference for Windows tools and patterns, and Linux-specific guidance is minimal.
Recommendations
- Add explicit Bash shell examples for Linux users alongside CLI and PowerShell examples.
- Ensure Linux references and examples are presented before or alongside Windows equivalents, not after.
- Clarify that Azure CLI commands work natively on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
- Provide links to Linux-specific quickstart and template guides before or alongside Windows guides.
- Reduce reliance on PowerShell examples or clearly mark them as Windows-only.
- Include troubleshooting or operational notes relevant to Linux environments (e.g., SSH key management, Linux VM configuration).
