Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Azure PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) for enabling debug logging, with no equivalent method available via Azure CLI (commonly used on Linux/macOS). PowerShell examples and tools are presented first and in greater detail, while Linux-native patterns or alternatives are not discussed. The lack of parity in debug logging capabilities between PowerShell and Azure CLI, and the absence of any mention of Linux shell scripting or cross-platform alternatives, further reinforce the bias.
Recommendations
- Advocate for feature parity: Request that debug logging capabilities (such as setting DeploymentDebugLogLevel) be added to Azure CLI, which is cross-platform.
- Provide Linux/bash examples: Where possible, include bash or shell scripting examples for common deployment and troubleshooting tasks.
- Balance tool coverage: Present Azure CLI examples before or alongside PowerShell examples, especially for tasks that can be performed on both platforms.
- Explicitly note platform limitations: Clearly state when a feature is only available on Windows/PowerShell, and suggest workarounds or alternatives for Linux/macOS users.
- Reference cross-platform tools: Mention or link to other cross-platform deployment tools or SDKs that can be used for similar troubleshooting tasks.
