Summary
The documentation provides examples for Azure portal, Azure CLI, Azure PowerShell, ARM templates, and programming languages (.NET, Java, Python, JavaScript). However, there is a notable emphasis on Azure PowerShell, which is primarily a Windows-centric tool. PowerShell examples are given equal prominence to CLI, and there is no mention of Bash, shell scripting, or Linux-native tools. The order of presentation places PowerShell before ARM templates and programming languages, which may reinforce a Windows-first perspective. There are no explicit Linux-specific instructions or examples, and the documentation does not clarify cross-platform compatibility for PowerShell or CLI commands.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Bash or shell scripting examples alongside Azure CLI to demonstrate Linux usage.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI commands work cross-platform (Windows, Linux, macOS) and recommend CLI for Linux users.
  • Note that Azure PowerShell is available on Linux and macOS via PowerShell Core, or provide installation instructions for non-Windows platforms.
  • Consider reordering sections to present CLI before PowerShell, or group them as 'cross-platform command-line tools' and 'Windows-specific tools'.
  • Add a table or note comparing tool/platform compatibility (CLI, PowerShell, portal, ARM templates) for Windows, Linux, and macOS.
  • Ensure parity in troubleshooting and environment setup instructions for both Windows and Linux users.
