Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and PowerShell examples for all major operations, ensuring cross-platform coverage for most users. However, the PowerShell section recommends and demonstrates the use of ARMClient (armclient.exe), a Windows-specific tool, without mentioning Linux-compatible alternatives or how to use ARMClient on Linux. There are no Bash/cURL or other native Linux shell examples for REST calls, and the documentation does not clarify ARMClient's cross-platform support. This may disadvantage Linux users who do not use PowerShell or ARMClient.
Recommendations
- Add explicit Bash/cURL examples for REST operations alongside Azure CLI and PowerShell, especially in sections where ARMClient is used.
- Clarify whether ARMClient is cross-platform and, if not, suggest Linux-compatible alternatives (e.g., httpie, curl, or using Azure CLI's az rest).
- When introducing tools like ARMClient, mention installation and usage instructions for both Windows and Linux.
- Consider including a table or section comparing available tools for REST operations on both Windows and Linux.
- Review the PowerShell examples to ensure they do not assume a Windows environment (e.g., file paths, executable extensions) and provide notes for Linux PowerShell users if needed.
