Summary
The documentation provides parity between Azure Portal, Azure CLI, and Azure PowerShell for all major tasks. However, there is a notable emphasis on Azure PowerShell, which is primarily a Windows tool, and PowerShell examples are given equal prominence to CLI examples. The documentation refers to installing Azure PowerShell and uses PowerShell-specific commands, which are less common on Linux. There are no explicit Linux shell (bash) examples, nor are Linux-specific tools or patterns mentioned. The CLI examples are cross-platform, but PowerShell is presented as a first-class option, which may suggest a Windows bias.
Recommendations
  • Clarify that Azure PowerShell is available on Linux and macOS, or note its Windows origins.
  • Add bash shell examples for common tasks, especially for scripting scenarios.
  • Highlight cross-platform compatibility of Azure CLI and provide links to Linux-specific installation guides.
  • Consider mentioning Linux-native tools (e.g., curl for REST API calls) in the 'Other tools' section.
  • If PowerShell is shown, also show equivalent bash or shell script snippets for Linux users.
