Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a bias toward Windows environments and tooling. Many examples and workflow steps use PowerShell, AzPowershell, and Azure PowerShell commands, especially for authentication and CI integration. Windows-specific tools and patterns (such as PowerShell@2, AzPowershell session, and Azure PowerShell links) are mentioned before or instead of Linux alternatives. There is a lack of explicit Linux shell (bash/sh) examples, and no mention of cross-platform command alternatives for authentication or scripting. This may hinder Linux users or those using non-Windows runners in CI/CD pipelines.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent bash/sh examples for authentication and scripting steps, especially for Azure login and CLI usage.
  • Mention and demonstrate cross-platform alternatives to PowerShell (e.g., Azure CLI commands in bash) in both GitHub Actions and Azure Pipelines sections.
  • Clarify that all steps work on Linux runners and provide explicit Linux/macOS instructions where relevant.
  • Avoid using Windows-specific terminology (e.g., AzPowershell) as the default; present platform-neutral options first.
  • Add troubleshooting notes or tips for Linux users, especially for authentication and environment setup.
