Summary
The documentation provides parallel Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell instructions throughout, but PowerShell is a Windows-centric tool and is featured equally alongside the cross-platform Azure CLI. In several places, environment variable examples are given in PowerShell syntax before or instead of Bash/Linux equivalents. When discussing creating Kubernetes clusters, Docker for Mac and Docker for Windows are mentioned, but Linux-native options (e.g., Minikube, MicroK8s) are not. There is a lack of explicit Linux/Bash command examples for common deployment and environment setup tasks, which may disadvantage Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Prioritize Azure CLI (which is cross-platform) in examples and structure, placing it before PowerShell sections.
  • For environment variable setup, provide Bash/Linux export examples before or alongside PowerShell examples.
  • Explicitly mention and provide links to Linux-native Kubernetes cluster creation tools (e.g., Minikube, MicroK8s) in the prerequisites.
  • Wherever PowerShell is used, ensure a Bash/Linux equivalent is shown, especially for common setup steps (e.g., setting environment variables for proxies).
  • Clarify that PowerShell is optional and primarily for Windows users, while Azure CLI and Bash commands are recommended for Linux/macOS.
  • Audit for any other Windows-specific terminology or tools and ensure Linux alternatives are equally represented.
