Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell examples for all operations, which supports cross-platform usage. However, there is a noticeable Windows bias: PowerShell is featured as a primary automation tool (which is native to Windows), and references to Visual Studio Code (a cross-platform editor but historically Windows-centric) are prominent. The prerequisites list Azure PowerShell before Azure CLI, and PowerShell examples are given equal prominence to CLI, despite CLI being more universally available on Linux/macOS. No Linux shell-specific guidance (e.g., bash, zsh) or notes about platform differences are provided. There are no explicit Linux-only examples or troubleshooting tips for non-Windows environments.
Recommendations
- Clarify that Azure CLI commands work natively on Linux/macOS and Windows, while PowerShell is most common on Windows but also available cross-platform.
- Add notes or links for installing and using Azure CLI on Linux/macOS, including shell integration (bash, zsh, etc.).
- Consider providing bash script examples or highlighting differences in command syntax/usage between Windows (PowerShell) and Linux/macOS (bash).
- Explicitly mention that Visual Studio Code and the Bicep extension are available on Linux/macOS, and provide installation instructions for those platforms.
- Where possible, use Azure CLI as the default/first example, as it is more universally available across platforms.
- Add troubleshooting or FAQ sections for common issues encountered on Linux/macOS (e.g., file permissions, path formats).
