Summary
The documentation provides command-line examples for Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell, but does not include Linux-specific shell examples (e.g., Bash scripts) or mention Linux tools where relevant. PowerShell examples are given equal prominence to Azure CLI, and in some cases, Windows-centric tools (like PowerShell) are presented without Linux alternatives. The documentation also does not clarify that Azure CLI commands are cross-platform, nor does it provide guidance for Linux users in sections where Windows tools are referenced.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly state that Azure CLI commands work on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and provide Bash shell examples where appropriate.
  • When referencing tools like PowerShell, clarify that PowerShell Core is available cross-platform, or provide equivalent Bash or shell script examples.
  • In sections that use Windows-centric terminology or tools (e.g., PowerShell), add Linux-native alternatives or note that the same steps can be performed on Linux.
  • For DNS lookups, mention both nslookup and dig, as dig is more common on Linux systems.
  • Review all command examples to ensure Linux users are equally supported and not implicitly deprioritized.
