Summary
The documentation page demonstrates mild Windows bias by mentioning Azure PowerShell and providing a link to its installation instructions, while not mentioning Linux-specific tools or shell environments (such as Bash, zsh, or Linux package managers) in equivalent detail. The update instructions for Azure CLI are presented using Bash syntax, which is cross-platform, but PowerShell is referenced separately and more prominently. There are no explicit PowerShell command examples, but the documentation refers to Azure PowerShell before listing SDKs for other languages. No Linux-specific patterns, tools, or package managers are mentioned, and there is no guidance for Linux users on updating Azure CLI or extensions using native Linux methods. The documentation does not provide examples or instructions for using Linux-specific shells or environments, nor does it mention cross-platform considerations for template deployment.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit instructions for updating Azure CLI and extensions on Linux, including common package manager commands (e.g., apt, yum, zypper).
  • Include references to Linux shell environments (e.g., Bash, zsh) and clarify that Azure CLI commands work cross-platform.
  • Provide parity by mentioning both Azure PowerShell (Windows) and Bash (Linux/macOS) environments when discussing CLI usage.
  • Add notes or links for installing/updating Azure CLI and PowerShell on Linux and macOS, not just Windows.
  • Ensure that SDK and tool references do not prioritize Windows tools or environments, and clarify cross-platform support where relevant.
