Summary
The documentation consistently presents both Bash and PowerShell examples for all command-line instructions, but PowerShell examples are always listed after Bash. However, the PowerShell examples are detailed and use Windows-specific scripting constructs (e.g., backticks for line continuation, PowerShell variables, and cmdlets like ConvertFrom-JSON, Select-Object, Set-Content), which are only relevant for Windows users. There is no evidence of exclusive use of Windows tools or missing Linux examples, as Bash instructions are provided throughout. The documentation does not mention Windows-specific tools or patterns before their Linux equivalents, but the PowerShell examples are more elaborate in some places, which may encourage a Windows-centric workflow for advanced scenarios.
Recommendations
  • Ensure that Bash and PowerShell examples are equally detailed and cover advanced scenarios in both shells.
  • Consider alternating the order of Bash and PowerShell tabs in different sections to avoid implicit prioritization.
  • Add a brief note clarifying that both Bash and PowerShell examples are supported equally on Azure CLI, and that users should choose based on their environment.
  • Where PowerShell-specific constructs are used (e.g., ConvertFrom-JSON, Set-Content), provide equivalent Bash alternatives (e.g., jq, cat/echo) to ensure Linux users have parity for complex tasks.
  • Review all examples to ensure that neither shell is given more advanced or complete coverage than the other.
