Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and PowerShell examples for deploying Resource Manager templates, but PowerShell is given equal prominence to Azure CLI, and Windows-style file paths (e.g., 'my\path\to\template.json') are used in CLI examples. There are no Linux-specific instructions, nor is there mention of Linux shell patterns or tools. The documentation assumes familiarity with PowerShell and Windows conventions, which may disadvantage Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Use platform-neutral file path examples in CLI commands (e.g., 'my/path/to/template.json' for Linux/macOS).
  • Explicitly mention that Azure CLI works on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and provide shell-specific guidance if needed.
  • Consider adding Bash or Linux shell examples where appropriate, especially for file operations or scripting.
  • Clarify that PowerShell examples are for users on Windows or PowerShell Core on Linux/macOS, and provide links to relevant installation guides.
  • Review screenshots and instructions to ensure they do not assume a Windows environment unless necessary.
