Summary
The documentation consistently provides Azure PowerShell examples alongside REST and Azure CLI, and references Windows-centric tools (PowerShell, PowerShellGet) for installation and usage. PowerShell is mentioned in every major workflow, sometimes with explicit installation instructions for Windows-only modules. REST and CLI examples are present, but PowerShell is given equal or greater prominence, and installation guidance is tailored to Windows environments. There is no explicit mention of Linux-specific considerations, nor are there examples using Linux-native shell environments (e.g., bash).
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Linux shell (bash) examples where CLI is used, showing usage in typical Linux environments.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI is cross-platform and provide installation instructions for both Windows and Linux.
  • Where PowerShell is referenced, note that PowerShell Core is available cross-platform, and provide installation steps for Linux/macOS.
  • Avoid referencing Windows-only tools (e.g., PowerShellGet) without noting Linux/macOS alternatives.
  • When listing example tabs, consider ordering them REST, CLI, then PowerShell, to avoid implicit Windows-first bias.
  • Add troubleshooting notes for common Linux-specific issues (e.g., file permissions, path formats) when using CLI or PowerShell.
  • Explicitly state platform compatibility for each tool and example.
