Summary
The documentation provides parallel examples for Azure portal, Azure CLI, and Azure PowerShell throughout, but PowerShell is featured as a first-class automation tool, which is primarily a Windows technology. References to PowerShell and its cmdlets are prominent, and there is no mention of Linux-specific shell environments (e.g., Bash) or cross-platform scripting patterns. The CLI examples are generic, but the absence of explicit Linux/Bash examples or notes about cross-platform usage creates a subtle Windows bias. Additionally, PowerShell is listed as a primary tab alongside CLI and portal, reinforcing its status as a preferred tool.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Bash shell examples for Azure CLI commands, showing usage in Linux environments (e.g., variable assignment, piping, etc.).
  • Include notes or sections clarifying that Azure CLI is fully supported on Linux and macOS, and provide links to installation guides for those platforms.
  • Mention cross-platform alternatives to PowerShell, such as Bash or Zsh, especially for scripting and automation tasks.
  • Where PowerShell cmdlets are shown, consider also showing equivalent Bash/CLI scripts for Linux users.
  • Review tab ordering and ensure that CLI (which is cross-platform) is not visually subordinate to PowerShell.
  • Add troubleshooting or usage tips specific to Linux environments (e.g., file permissions, environment variables, shell differences) where relevant.
