Summary
The documentation provides examples for Azure CLI, Azure PowerShell, and the Azure Portal for each query. While Azure CLI is cross-platform, the inclusion of Azure PowerShell examples (which are most commonly used on Windows and have a Windows-centric history) and the explicit '[Azure PowerShell]' tab for every scenario introduces a subtle Windows bias. Additionally, the ordering of tabs consistently places Azure PowerShell immediately after Azure CLI, which can reinforce a Windows-first perception. There are no explicit Linux shell examples (e.g., Bash, shell scripting), nor are Linux-native tools or patterns mentioned. However, the use of Azure CLI does provide parity for Linux users, and the queries themselves are platform-neutral.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Bash/shell script examples for Linux users, demonstrating how to run the Azure CLI queries in a Linux terminal.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI is fully supported on Linux and macOS, and link to installation instructions for those platforms.
  • Consider alternating the order of tabs or grouping Azure CLI and PowerShell under a generic 'Command Line' heading to avoid reinforcing a Windows-first mindset.
  • Where relevant, mention Linux-native tools (e.g., jq, grep) that can be used to process Azure CLI output.
  • If PowerShell examples are included, clarify that PowerShell Core is cross-platform and provide instructions for Linux/macOS installation.
