Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a significant Windows bias in its instructions for generating and sanitizing ARM templates for playbooks. All automation steps rely exclusively on PowerShell scripts, with explicit references to Windows PowerShell, Visual Studio Code, and commands like Set-ExecutionPolicy that are specific to Windows environments. There are no equivalent examples or instructions for Linux or macOS users, nor are alternative tools (such as Bash, Azure CLI, or cross-platform scripting) mentioned. The documentation assumes a Windows-first workflow and omits guidance for non-Windows platforms.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux and macOS equivalents for PowerShell-based steps, such as using Azure CLI, Bash scripts, or PowerShell Core on non-Windows platforms.
- Clarify which steps are cross-platform and which are Windows-specific; where possible, use cross-platform tools and document their usage.
- Include explicit instructions for running the ARM template generator script on Linux and macOS, including prerequisites and any required changes (e.g., script execution policies, authentication methods).
- Mention alternative editors (such as VS Code on Linux/macOS, nano, vim) instead of only Visual Studio Code and Windows PowerShell.
- Add notes or links to resources for users who do not have access to Windows environments, ensuring full parity in the documentation.
