Summary
The documentation consistently presents Windows-centric tools and patterns first, such as PowerShell and Visual Studio Code, and assumes the use of Windows terminals (PowerShell) before Linux equivalents (Bash/Azure CLI). Visual Studio Code is recommended as the editor, which is popular on Windows but less so on Linux. There are no explicit Linux-specific instructions, and the examples for command-line usage are split between PowerShell and Azure CLI, but PowerShell is always listed first. There is no mention of Linux-native editors or shell environments beyond Bash, nor any guidance for non-Windows users regarding setup or troubleshooting.
Recommendations
  • Alternate the order of PowerShell and Azure CLI examples, or present Azure CLI first to avoid implicit Windows prioritization.
  • Include explicit instructions or notes for Linux users, such as using native editors (e.g., Vim, Nano) and shell environments.
  • Mention cross-platform alternatives to Visual Studio Code, or clarify that VS Code is available on Linux and macOS.
  • Add troubleshooting or setup notes for Linux environments, such as package manager installation commands for Azure CLI and Bicep.
  • Consider including examples for MacOS users, or a general note on cross-platform compatibility for all tools and commands.
