Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in the 'Set environment variables' section, where Windows PowerShell is mentioned first and given as the primary example for setting environment variables. There is no explicit Linux or macOS example for referencing environment variables, and the PowerShell syntax is presented before the Bash syntax. Other sections use cross-platform Azure CLI commands, but the initial environment variable setup may confuse Linux/macOS users due to lack of parity.
Recommendations
  • Provide both Windows (PowerShell) and Linux/macOS (Bash) examples side-by-side when setting environment variables and referencing them.
  • Explicitly mention that Bash syntax applies to Linux/macOS and PowerShell syntax applies to Windows, to avoid confusion.
  • Where referencing environment variables is shown, add the Bash/Linux/macOS equivalent (e.g., $resourceGroup or ${resourceGroup}) alongside the PowerShell example.
  • Review other sections for similar patterns and ensure examples are platform-neutral or include both Windows and Linux/macOS variants where appropriate.
