Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and PowerShell examples for configuring dead-letter and retry policies in Azure Event Grid. However, PowerShell is a Windows-centric tool and its inclusion alongside Azure CLI (which is cross-platform) can signal a Windows bias, especially since PowerShell examples are given equal prominence. There are no explicit Linux shell (bash) or scripting examples, nor is there mention of Linux-specific patterns or tools. The related sample application is for .NET, another technology often associated with Windows environments. There is no guidance for Linux users beyond Azure CLI, and no mention of Linux-first workflows or troubleshooting.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit bash/sh examples for common operations, demonstrating usage in native Linux environments.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI is cross-platform and can be used on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
  • Consider including sample scripts or automation patterns for Linux users, such as bash scripts or references to tools like curl or jq.
  • Balance the prominence of PowerShell by either moving it after CLI examples or making it clear that PowerShell Core is available cross-platform.
  • Provide links or references to Linux-focused sample applications or tutorials, not just .NET/Windows-centric ones.
  • Add troubleshooting notes or tips for Linux users, such as common permission or environment issues.
