Summary
The documentation exhibits Windows bias in several ways. It references the Windows implementation of SSL as a security advantage, mentions PowerShell as a primary automation tool, and provides detailed PowerShell examples before Azure CLI examples. There is no mention of Linux-specific tools or patterns (e.g., Bash scripting, OpenSSL usage), and the CLI examples are generic, not tailored to Linux environments. The documentation does not provide parity for Linux users in terms of troubleshooting, automation, or tool recommendations.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Linux/Bash examples alongside PowerShell, especially for scripting and automation tasks.
  • Reference OpenSSL and Linux TLS stack considerations where relevant, especially in security notes.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI commands work cross-platform and provide Linux-specific installation and usage notes.
  • Avoid statements that imply Windows security advantages without acknowledging Linux/OpenSSL contexts.
  • Include troubleshooting steps and examples for Linux clients (e.g., how to test TLS versions with curl or OpenSSL).
  • Balance the order of examples so that PowerShell and CLI/Bash are presented equally, or alternate which comes first.
