Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by consistently presenting PowerShell examples before Azure CLI, referencing PowerShell as a primary automation tool, and using terminology and patterns familiar to Windows users (e.g., PowerShell cmdlets, references to Windows time zones). The Azure portal instructions also implicitly assume a Windows-centric user base, as the portal experience is most commonly accessed from Windows environments. There is minimal mention of Linux-specific considerations, and no Bash or Linux shell examples are provided.
Recommendations
  • Present Azure CLI examples before or alongside PowerShell examples to provide parity for Linux/macOS users.
  • Include Bash shell script examples for common tasks, especially for automation scenarios.
  • Reference cross-platform tools and workflows, such as using Azure CLI in Bash or zsh, and clarify that the Azure portal is accessible from any OS.
  • Avoid Windows-centric terminology (e.g., 'Pacific Standard Time') and provide guidance on time zone selection for Linux users.
  • Explicitly mention that all command-line examples work on Linux/macOS as well as Windows, and note any OS-specific caveats.
  • Add a section or note on using these procedures from Linux/macOS environments, including prerequisites and troubleshooting tips.
