Summary
The documentation page exhibits Windows bias in several ways: file path examples consistently use Windows-style paths (e.g., c:\jsontemplates) without showing Linux/macOS equivalents; installation and cache location instructions mention Windows first or exclusively; references to Azure PowerShell are present, but there are no equivalent Linux shell (bash/zsh) examples; and some commands (like install, upgrade, list-versions) are only shown for Azure CLI, which is cross-platform but often associated with Windows. Named pipe examples are shown for both Windows and Linux, but Windows syntax is presented first. There are no bash or Linux-specific command-line examples, and Linux file path conventions are rarely shown.
Recommendations
- For every file path example, provide both Windows (c:\path) and Linux/macOS (/home/user/path or ~/path) variants, ideally side-by-side.
- When referencing installation or cache locations, list all platforms equally and avoid listing Windows first by default.
- Add bash/zsh shell examples where appropriate, especially for command invocation and scripting.
- Include references to Linux-native tools or patterns (e.g., using export, chmod, etc.) where relevant.
- Ensure that documentation for commands available only in Azure CLI clarifies cross-platform support and provides platform-specific installation guidance.
- Where PowerShell is mentioned, also mention bash/zsh alternatives for Linux/macOS users.
- Review the order of platform mentions and examples to avoid implicit prioritization of Windows.
