Summary
The documentation page focuses heavily on PowerShell cmdlets for both deprecated and new Azure Service Manager/Resource Manager operations. There are no examples or mentions of Linux-native tools (such as Azure CLI, Bash, or scripting with curl), nor are cross-platform alternatives discussed. The PowerShell commands are presented as the primary or sole method for scripting and automation, which may disadvantage Linux users or those preferring platform-neutral tooling.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent Azure CLI commands for each PowerShell example, with links to CLI documentation.
  • Include REST API usage examples using curl or HTTPie, demonstrating cross-platform access.
  • Explicitly mention that PowerShell Core is available on Linux and macOS, but also provide CLI/Bash alternatives for users who do not use PowerShell.
  • Reorganize examples so that platform-neutral (REST API, CLI) approaches are presented before or alongside PowerShell commands.
  • Add a section comparing PowerShell and Azure CLI usage for common tasks, highlighting cross-platform options.
