Summary
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. PowerShell is featured prominently and often before Azure CLI, both in prerequisites and step-by-step instructions. Windows-specific tools and patterns, such as nslookup with Windows-style prompts (PS C:\>), are used for DNS validation. There is no mention of Linux-specific tools (e.g., dig) or shell environments, and examples assume a Windows context for command-line usage and output formatting.
Recommendations
  • Include Linux-specific validation examples, such as using 'dig' or 'host' commands, alongside or instead of 'nslookup'.
  • Show Azure CLI usage in both Windows (cmd/powershell) and Linux/macOS (bash/zsh) contexts, clarifying shell differences where relevant.
  • Balance PowerShell and CLI examples by presenting CLI instructions first or equally, as CLI is cross-platform.
  • Avoid Windows-centric prompts and output formats (e.g., 'PS C:\>'), or provide equivalent Linux/macOS examples.
  • Explicitly mention that Azure CLI works on Linux/macOS and provide installation or usage notes for those platforms.
  • Add notes or links for Linux users on how to access Azure Cloud Shell from non-Windows environments.
