Summary
The documentation provides both Bash and PowerShell examples for all CLI commands, maintaining parity in command-line instructions. However, the PowerShell examples are often more verbose and detailed, especially in the 'Deploy front end application' section, where the PowerShell workflow is described with multiple custom objects and steps, while Bash uses a single CLI command. Additionally, PowerShell examples are given equal prominence to Bash, which may reflect a slight Windows bias, as PowerShell is primarily a Windows tool (though available on Linux). There are no Linux-specific tools or patterns mentioned, and no Linux-only examples. The documentation avoids exclusive use of Windows tools but does present PowerShell workflows that are more complex and detailed than their Bash counterparts.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Bash examples for complex deployment workflows, such as using ARM templates or az CLI with JSON input, to match the detail given in PowerShell.
  • Add notes clarifying that PowerShell is available cross-platform, but Bash is the default shell on most Linux systems.
  • Consider including Linux-specific troubleshooting tips or environment setup instructions, especially for Docker and Azure CLI usage.
  • Ensure that Bash examples are as detailed as PowerShell ones, especially for advanced scenarios, to avoid implying that PowerShell is the preferred or more capable option.
