Summary
The documentation page exhibits a Windows bias by providing detailed PowerShell examples and instructions first, referencing Windows-specific tools and patterns (such as REM comments and set commands), and generally prioritizing Windows environments. While Bash examples are present for Azure CLI, they are less emphasized and lack parity in explanation compared to the PowerShell section. There is no explicit Linux shell scripting example outside of Azure CLI, and the documentation assumes familiarity with Windows conventions.
Recommendations
- Ensure Bash/Linux examples are presented with equal detail and prominence as PowerShell/Windows examples.
- Avoid using Windows-specific syntax (e.g., REM, set) without providing equivalent Linux/Bash alternatives.
- Include explicit instructions for running scripts on Linux/macOS environments, not just Windows.
- Consider starting with cross-platform or Linux-first examples to balance the order of presentation.
- Clarify that both PowerShell and Bash can be used in Cloud Shell, and provide guidance for local Linux setups.
