Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by consistently presenting Azure PowerShell examples alongside or immediately after Azure CLI, referencing Windows-centric tools and patterns (PowerShell, Azure portal), and omitting explicit Linux shell examples (e.g., bash scripts, Linux-native workflows). While there is a brief mention of podman for RHEL, most authentication and management scenarios are described using Windows tools or interfaces first, with Linux alternatives only referenced as exceptions.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit bash/Linux shell examples for all authentication scenarios, not just Azure CLI but also for service principal and admin account workflows.
  • Present Linux-native workflows (e.g., bash, podman, environment variables) alongside or before Windows/PowerShell examples to ensure parity.
  • Include instructions for using Azure CLI and Docker/podman on Linux, including installation and troubleshooting steps relevant to Linux environments.
  • Reference Linux desktop environments and terminal usage where appropriate, not just the Azure portal or PowerShell.
  • Ensure all examples using environment variables, file paths, or command syntax are cross-platform (e.g., avoid Windows-style paths or commands unless also providing Linux equivalents).
