Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a mild Windows bias by referencing Windows-specific tools and patterns before Linux equivalents. In the CLI prerequisites, Bash is mentioned as 'such as Git Bash, which is included in Git for Windows,' prioritizing a Windows-centric Bash environment over native Linux/macOS shells. The PowerShell instructions are presented as a primary option, which is inherently Windows-focused, and the CLI section references Bash in a Windows context first. There are no explicit Linux/macOS examples or instructions, and the documentation does not mention native Linux or macOS terminal environments or their installation processes.
Recommendations
  • In the CLI prerequisites, mention native Bash shells on Linux and macOS before referencing Git Bash for Windows. For example: 'A Bash shell (available by default on Linux and macOS, or via Git Bash on Windows)'.
  • Add explicit instructions or notes for Linux and macOS users regarding shell usage and Azure CLI installation.
  • Where PowerShell is referenced, clarify that it is available cross-platform, and provide links or instructions for installing PowerShell on Linux/macOS if relevant.
  • Consider adding example commands or screenshots from Linux/macOS environments to demonstrate parity.
  • Review and update language to avoid Windows-first phrasing, ensuring all platforms are treated equally.
