Summary
The documentation demonstrates a mild Windows bias: Visual Studio Code is required as the editor, which is cross-platform but often associated with Windows workflows. The instructions for opening and saving files use GUI steps typical of Windows environments. In deployment, both PowerShell and Azure CLI examples are provided, but PowerShell is presented first, and the CLI example is labeled as 'Bash (for CLI)', which may imply secondary importance. There are no explicit Linux-specific editor or workflow recommendations, and the file upload instructions reference GUI actions that may not be typical for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly mention that Visual Studio Code is available on Linux and macOS, and suggest alternative editors (e.g., Vim, nano) for Linux users.
  • Provide command-line instructions for downloading the template file (e.g., using curl or wget) in addition to GUI steps.
  • Present Azure CLI (Bash) examples before or alongside PowerShell examples to avoid Windows-first impression.
  • Include Linux-specific instructions for uploading files to Azure Cloud Shell (e.g., using azcopy or scp).
  • Clarify that all steps can be performed on Linux, macOS, or Windows, and highlight any platform-specific differences.
