Summary
The documentation provides examples for Azure CLI, Azure PowerShell, and Azure portal, but consistently lists Azure PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) as a primary method alongside Azure CLI. PowerShell examples are given equal prominence to CLI, even though PowerShell is less commonly used on Linux. There is no mention of Linux-specific tools or workflows (such as Bash scripts or Linux-native credential management patterns), and the only shell-specific advice is a brief note about escaping the dollar sign in Bash. The documentation does not provide any Linux-first or Linux-only examples, and the ordering of examples sometimes places PowerShell before CLI, reinforcing a Windows-centric approach.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Linux/Bash examples for credential management, such as using Bash scripts to interact with Azure CLI.
  • Clarify that Azure PowerShell is primarily a Windows tool and suggest Azure CLI as the preferred cross-platform method.
  • Reorder examples to present Azure CLI before Azure PowerShell, emphasizing CLI as the default for cross-platform usage.
  • Include notes or sections on Linux-specific considerations, such as file permissions, shell environments, or integration with Linux automation tools.
  • Mention that Azure CLI is available natively on Linux and macOS, and provide installation links or guidance for those platforms.
