Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several areas. In Step 6, users are instructed to 'Open Windows Command Prompt, PowerShell, or other command shell,' listing Windows shells first and not providing explicit Linux/macOS terminal instructions or examples. There are no Linux-specific examples or guidance for uploading files, and the use of Azure CLI is described generically without clarifying cross-platform usage. The documentation does not provide parity for Linux users in terms of shell commands, environment setup, or troubleshooting.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly mention Linux/macOS terminals (e.g., Bash, zsh) alongside Windows shells when instructing users to open a command shell.
  • Provide Linux/macOS-specific examples for Azure CLI commands, including any differences in quoting, environment variables, or file paths.
  • Add troubleshooting notes or tips for common issues encountered on Linux/macOS (e.g., file permissions, npm/node compatibility).
  • Ensure that all steps referencing command shells or tools are platform-neutral or include both Windows and Linux/macOS instructions.
  • Where GUI instructions are given for Azure Portal, clarify that the steps are the same regardless of OS, and provide CLI alternatives where possible.
