Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a subtle Windows bias. References to editors and deployment tools prioritize Windows-centric options (Visual Studio, Visual Studio Code) and PowerShell. There are no explicit Linux or cross-platform editor recommendations, and deployment instructions mention Azure PowerShell and Azure CLI but do not provide parity for Linux-specific usage or examples. The only editor-specific advice is for Visual Studio/VS Code, both Windows-preferred. No Linux shell or tool examples are provided, nor is there mention of Linux-specific considerations for template deployment.
Recommendations
  • Include Linux-specific editor recommendations (e.g., Vim, Emacs, nano) and instructions for validating JSON templates.
  • Add explicit Linux shell (bash) examples for deploying ARM templates using Azure CLI, including command-line syntax and file handling (e.g., handling multi-line strings, comments).
  • Mention cross-platform editors (e.g., VS Code is cross-platform, but clarify its availability on Linux and macOS).
  • Provide parity in deployment instructions, such as showing both PowerShell and bash/CLI commands for common tasks.
  • Note any differences in behavior or requirements when deploying from Linux environments (e.g., file encoding, line endings, permission issues).
  • Where Visual Studio is mentioned, clarify its limited availability on Linux and suggest alternatives.
