Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. PowerShell is presented as a primary automation method alongside the Azure portal, with detailed instructions and explanations for PowerShell usage. Windows-specific tools and patterns (PowerShell, Cloud Shell, local PowerShell installation) are mentioned before or with more detail than their Linux equivalents. While Azure CLI examples are provided (which work cross-platform), the introductory and prerequisite sections emphasize PowerShell and Windows-centric workflows. There is little explicit mention of Linux-specific environments or shell usage, and the CLI section suggests Docker for macOS/Windows but does not mention native Linux usage.
Recommendations
- Explicitly mention that Azure CLI works natively on Linux and provide guidance for Linux users in the prerequisites.
- Add examples or notes for running Azure CLI commands in common Linux shells (bash, zsh), including installation and authentication steps.
- Balance introductory content to present CLI and PowerShell equally, or consider listing CLI before PowerShell to avoid Windows-first ordering.
- Where PowerShell-specific instructions are given (e.g., credential handling), provide equivalent Linux/CLI workflows (such as SSH key generation and management).
- Include references to Linux documentation or troubleshooting for common issues encountered by Linux users.
- Clarify that Azure Cloud Shell supports both Bash and PowerShell, and provide links or instructions for both.
