Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by using Windows-style file paths (e.g., c:\Templates\deployTS\azuredeploy.json) throughout, referencing PowerShell and Azure CLI examples but defaulting to Windows conventions. PowerShell is presented first in all code tabs, and there is no mention of Linux shell equivalents (e.g., Bash), nor are Linux file path formats shown. There is also a note about a known issue with Windows PowerShell, but no equivalent troubleshooting for Linux environments.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux/Bash examples alongside PowerShell, including Linux file path conventions (e.g., /home/user/Templates/deployTS/azuredeploy.json).
  • Alternate the order of PowerShell and CLI tabs, or present CLI (which is cross-platform) first.
  • Add notes or troubleshooting guidance for Linux environments if relevant.
  • Explicitly state that Azure CLI commands work on Linux/macOS and show examples using Bash syntax and environment variables.
  • Avoid hardcoding Windows paths in examples; use generic or platform-neutral paths, or show both Windows and Linux formats.
