Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by consistently listing Azure PowerShell as a primary method for exporting and deploying templates, often before or alongside Azure CLI, but without explicit Linux shell (bash) examples. There is no mention of Linux-specific tools or command-line patterns (e.g., Bash, SSH, SCP), and the guidance for deployment and export is focused on Azure Portal, PowerShell, and CLI, which can be used on Linux but are often associated with Windows workflows. No Linux-specific instructions or examples are provided, and Windows-centric terminology (e.g., 'Azure PowerShell', 'Cloud Shell') appears frequently.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit bash and Linux shell examples for exporting and deploying ARM/Bicep templates.
  • Include instructions for using Azure CLI in native Linux environments, highlighting differences from Windows usage if any.
  • Mention and provide examples for Linux-native tools (e.g., SSH, SCP, rsync) where relevant, especially for tasks like data migration and cluster access.
  • Ensure that Azure CLI examples are presented before or alongside PowerShell examples to avoid Windows-first impression.
  • Clarify that Azure Cloud Shell supports both Bash and PowerShell, and provide examples for both.
  • Review terminology to avoid implying that PowerShell is the default or preferred method, and balance references to Windows and Linux environments.
