Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by consistently presenting Azure PowerShell examples alongside or immediately after Azure CLI examples, with no explicit Bash or Linux shell examples for registry management tasks. Windows-specific tooling (PowerShell) is given parity with Azure CLI, but Linux-native tools and workflows are only briefly mentioned (e.g., podman) and not demonstrated in detail. The guidance and examples for authentication and registry management focus on Azure CLI and PowerShell, with no Linux shell scripting or non-Windows environment walkthroughs. The 'Next steps' section also only links to Azure CLI and PowerShell guides, omitting Linux/Bash or cross-platform alternatives.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Bash/Linux shell examples for authentication and registry management tasks, especially for common workflows like service principal login and admin account management.
  • Provide parity for Linux-native container tools (e.g., podman, skopeo) in examples, not just mention them in passing.
  • Include a 'Linux/Bash' tab alongside 'Azure CLI' and 'Azure PowerShell' for all code examples, showing commands as run in a typical Linux environment.
  • In the 'Next steps' section, link to guides for Linux/Bash workflows and container management using Linux-native tools.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI is cross-platform and demonstrate its use in Linux environments, including installation and configuration steps for Linux.
  • Where PowerShell is mentioned, note its availability on Linux, but do not assume it is the default shell for Linux users.
