Summary
The documentation consistently provides both Bash and PowerShell examples for Azure CLI commands, but PowerShell (Windows) examples are always present and given equal prominence to Bash. There are no Linux-specific instructions or troubleshooting notes, and the use of PowerShell syntax may be confusing for Linux users. The documentation does not mention Linux tools or patterns, nor does it address platform-specific differences (e.g., file permissions, environment variable handling, shell differences).
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Linux instructions or troubleshooting notes, especially for common issues (e.g., file permissions, shell differences, environment variable syntax).
  • Provide examples using native Linux tools and patterns where relevant (e.g., systemd, networking commands, file operations).
  • Clarify that Bash examples are suitable for Linux/macOS and PowerShell for Windows, and consider making Bash (Linux/macOS) examples the default or primary example, with PowerShell as an alternative.
  • Include a section on platform-specific considerations, such as differences in CLI installation, environment variable syntax, and file system paths.
  • Ensure parity in guidance for both Windows and Linux users, including troubleshooting, prerequisites, and verification steps.
