Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows and PowerShell usage. All command-line instructions for deploying and managing Azure Data Factory resources are provided exclusively using Azure PowerShell, with no mention of Azure CLI, Bash, or cross-platform alternatives. The prerequisites and workflow assume the reader is using PowerShell, a tool most commonly associated with Windows, and do not offer Linux/macOS-friendly equivalents or guidance. This creates a barrier for users on Linux or macOS, who may prefer or require Bash or Azure CLI. There is no mention of how to perform these steps using other tools, nor any cross-platform notes.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent Azure CLI commands for all PowerShell instructions, as Azure CLI is cross-platform and widely used on Linux/macOS.
- Add a section or callouts indicating how Linux/macOS users can perform each step, including installation and authentication.
- Explicitly state that Azure PowerShell is available on Linux/macOS, if relevant, and provide installation instructions for those platforms.
- Consider reordering examples so that cross-platform tools (Azure CLI, REST API) are mentioned before or alongside PowerShell.
- Include Bash script examples for file operations (such as uploading files to Blob Storage) using Azure CLI or azcopy.
- Add a note at the beginning clarifying that the tutorial is suitable for users on all major operating systems, and provide links to platform-specific guidance where needed.
