Summary
The documentation page exhibits Windows bias primarily through the exclusive mention of Azure PowerShell cmdlets (e.g., Set-AzFirewallPolicy) as workarounds, without providing equivalent Azure CLI or REST API examples. There is also a lack of Linux-specific guidance or parity in tooling references, and no examples are given for Linux shell usage or cross-platform CLI commands. The documentation assumes familiarity with PowerShell and Windows-centric tools, omitting Linux-first or cross-platform alternatives.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent Azure CLI and REST API examples alongside PowerShell cmdlets for all operations, especially for tasks like updating firewall policy tags.
- Explicitly mention cross-platform tools and usage patterns, such as Bash shell commands or Linux-native utilities, where relevant.
- Ensure that mitigation steps and workarounds do not assume PowerShell as the default, and offer parallel instructions for Linux users.
- Review all troubleshooting and configuration guidance to include both Windows and Linux perspectives, ensuring parity in documentation.
- Add a section or note clarifying that all operations can be performed from Linux, macOS, and Windows, and link to platform-specific guides as appropriate.
