Summary
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. PowerShell is featured as a primary automation method alongside the Azure portal and CLI, with detailed step-by-step instructions and code samples. PowerShell is a Windows-centric tool, and its prominence may disadvantage Linux users. The CLI examples are present and reasonably complete, but there is no mention of Bash, Linux shell scripting, or Linux-specific considerations. The prerequisites and instructions for PowerShell (including module installation and Connect-AzAccount) are detailed, while Linux setup or shell environment preparation is not discussed. The documentation does not reference Linux-native tools or patterns, and PowerShell is often listed before CLI, reinforcing a Windows-first approach.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Bash/Linux shell examples for Azure CLI commands, including sample scripts and environment setup instructions.
  • Include notes or links for Linux users on how to install and use Azure CLI on Linux distributions.
  • Balance the order of examples so that CLI (cross-platform) instructions appear before PowerShell, or alternate their order.
  • Mention that PowerShell Core is available on Linux and macOS, and provide guidance for those platforms if PowerShell is retained.
  • Reference Linux-native automation tools (e.g., Bash, Ansible) where appropriate, or provide links to relevant documentation.
  • Clarify that all CLI commands are cross-platform and highlight any platform-specific caveats.
