Summary
The documentation is heavily oriented toward Windows and Visual Studio users, with all examples and workflows assuming the use of Visual Studio on Windows. Deployment scripts and instructions are exclusively provided for PowerShell, with no mention of Bash, Azure CLI, or cross-platform alternatives. There are no Linux or macOS instructions or screenshots, and no guidance for users who might be developing or deploying from non-Windows environments.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent instructions for using Azure Resource Manager templates with cross-platform tools such as Azure CLI and Bash scripts.
  • Provide examples and deployment workflows that use Visual Studio Code, which is cross-platform, or other IDEs/editors available on Linux/macOS.
  • Include notes or sections for Linux/macOS users, clarifying which steps are Windows-specific and how to achieve similar results on other platforms.
  • Offer alternative deployment scripts in Bash or reference the use of Azure CLI for template deployment.
  • Clarify that the Visual Studio Resource Group project is only available on Windows, and suggest cross-platform alternatives for ARM template authoring and deployment.
