Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. While both Azure PowerShell and Azure CLI are mentioned as prerequisites, the PowerShell example for building the Bicep file is presented first, followed by the Azure CLI example. There are no explicit Linux-specific instructions, nor are there examples showing command-line usage in a Linux shell (e.g., Bash). The instructions and screenshots are focused on the Azure Portal UI, which is cross-platform, but there is no mention of Linux-specific tools, patterns, or considerations. The documentation does not provide parity for Linux users in terms of command-line examples or environment-specific notes.
Recommendations
  • Present Azure CLI (cross-platform) examples before PowerShell examples to avoid implicit Windows-first bias.
  • Include explicit Bash shell examples for Linux users where command-line operations are described.
  • Add notes or sections highlighting any differences or considerations for Linux environments (e.g., file paths, shell commands, package installation).
  • Clarify that Visual Studio Code and Azure CLI are cross-platform and provide installation links or instructions for Linux.
  • Where PowerShell is mentioned, note that PowerShell Core is available on Linux and macOS, and provide installation instructions for those platforms.
