Summary
The documentation provides examples for Azure CLI, Azure PowerShell, REST API, and mentions the Azure portal. However, PowerShell is featured prominently and referenced in links and examples, which may indicate a Windows bias. The documentation links to PowerShell-specific resources before CLI or REST equivalents, and troubleshooting/role assignment guidance references PowerShell first. There are no explicit Linux-specific examples, nor is there mention of Linux-native scripting or shell environments (e.g., Bash), and PowerShell is a Windows-centric tool (though now cross-platform, its usage is still more common on Windows).
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Bash shell examples for Azure CLI commands to demonstrate Linux-native usage.
  • Ensure links to Azure CLI documentation are given equal prominence to PowerShell links.
  • Where PowerShell is referenced, clarify that Azure CLI is fully supported on Linux and macOS, and provide guidance for those platforms.
  • Avoid using PowerShell-specific terminology (e.g., 'cmdlet') without also referencing CLI equivalents.
  • Consider adding troubleshooting steps using Azure CLI in addition to PowerShell.
  • Review ordering of examples and documentation links to avoid listing Windows/PowerShell first unless justified by usage statistics.
