Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Azure PowerShell examples are consistently presented first in every code tab, followed by Azure CLI and then Azure portal (which is often not implemented for deployment stacks). The use of PowerShell-specific syntax and terminology (e.g., backticks for line continuation, PowerShell cmdlet names) presumes familiarity with Windows tooling. There is no mention of Linux-specific shell environments, nor are there any Bash or shell script examples, even though Azure CLI is cross-platform. The documentation refers to 'Azure PowerShell' and 'Azure CLI' as the main automation interfaces, but always lists PowerShell first, and some explanations are tailored to PowerShell usage patterns (e.g., piping output, debug mode).
Recommendations
- Alternate the order of code tabs so that Azure CLI examples are presented first or equally with PowerShell, especially since Azure CLI is cross-platform and more commonly used on Linux.
- Add explicit Bash/shell script examples for Azure CLI commands, showing line continuations with backslashes and usage in Linux/macOS terminals.
- Clarify that Azure CLI commands work natively on Linux/macOS and Windows, and provide guidance for shell differences (e.g., quoting, environment variables).
- Avoid PowerShell-specific terminology (such as 'cmdlet', backtick line continuation) in general explanations, or provide equivalent Bash/shell notes.
- Where output examples are shown, include both PowerShell and Bash/CLI output formats if they differ.
- Explicitly mention Linux and macOS support for Azure CLI and Bicep, and link to installation guides for these platforms.
