Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by consistently mentioning Azure PowerShell and linking to PowerShell deployment documentation before or alongside Azure CLI and REST API. The primary deployment method is via the Azure portal, which is more familiar to Windows users. References to deployment alternatives point to PowerShell documentation, and PowerShell examples are given equal prominence to CLI, despite CLI being more cross-platform. There is no explicit mention of Linux-specific patterns, nor are Linux shell scripting examples provided.
Recommendations
  • Provide explicit Linux shell (bash) examples for deployment and cleanup, in addition to Azure CLI.
  • Link to Azure CLI deployment documentation before or alongside PowerShell, emphasizing CLI as the cross-platform choice.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI works natively on Linux/macOS and Windows, and highlight installation instructions for non-Windows platforms.
  • Add notes or sections for deploying ARM templates using Linux-native tools (e.g., curl, jq, az CLI in bash scripts).
  • Balance the prominence of PowerShell and CLI examples, ensuring CLI is not secondary to PowerShell.
  • Avoid referring to the Azure portal as the default method; instead, present CLI and REST API as equally valid, especially for automation and Linux users.
