Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Several command examples use PowerShell syntax and variables, especially in identity and role assignment steps, despite Azure CLI and Bash being cross-platform. The backup instructions reference the Azure portal and mention PowerShell scripts as restoration options alongside Bash, but do not clarify Linux parity. PowerShell-based examples appear before or instead of pure Bash alternatives, and there is no explicit guidance for Linux users regarding differences or equivalence.
Recommendations
  • Provide all command examples in both PowerShell and Bash/Azure CLI syntax, or default to Bash for cross-platform compatibility.
  • Clearly indicate which commands are platform-specific and offer Linux equivalents where PowerShell is used.
  • When referencing downloadable scripts (e.g., in backups), specify which are for Windows and which for Linux, and ensure both are present.
  • Avoid using PowerShell variable syntax ($var) in CLI examples unless specifically targeting Windows users; prefer Bash syntax for general documentation.
  • Add a note at the beginning clarifying that all steps can be performed on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and highlight any platform-specific considerations.
  • Ensure that any automation or scripting instructions are available in Bash for Linux users, not just PowerShell.
