Summary
The documentation consistently presents Azure Portal (a web GUI, typically accessed from Windows environments) instructions before Azure CLI examples. There are no examples or references to Linux-specific tools, shell environments, or command-line patterns (e.g., Bash, SSH, SCP, etc.). All CLI examples use Azure CLI, which is cross-platform, but the documentation does not mention or show usage from Linux terminals, nor does it provide parity for Linux-specific workflows (such as connecting via SSH, using Bash scripting, or referencing Linux authentication patterns). There is a subtle Windows-first bias in ordering and in the lack of explicit Linux context.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit examples of using Azure CLI from Linux terminals (e.g., Bash), including screenshots or terminal output from Linux environments.
  • Mention that Azure CLI is cross-platform and provide instructions for installing and using it on Linux.
  • Include references to Linux-native tools and workflows where relevant (e.g., SSH for connecting to BareMetal instances, Bash scripting for automation).
  • Balance the ordering of examples so that CLI instructions are presented before or alongside portal instructions, emphasizing parity.
  • Where screenshots are shown, include examples from Linux desktops or terminals, not just the Azure Portal web interface.
