Summary
The documentation provides examples for both Azure CLI (Bash) and Azure PowerShell, but PowerShell is given equal prominence to Bash, and several sections (such as command listing and navigation) use PowerShell-specific patterns and terminology (e.g., 'Azure drive', 'cd Azure:/...'). The 'Next steps' section lists PowerShell before CLI, and screenshots and instructions reference the Azure portal, which is more commonly used in Windows environments. There is no explicit Linux bias or parity, and some PowerShell examples use Windows-centric navigation (e.g., drive notation).
Recommendations
  • Ensure Bash/Azure CLI examples are given equal or greater prominence than PowerShell, especially in introductory sections.
  • Add Linux-specific notes or examples where navigation or file paths differ (e.g., clarify that 'Azure:/' drive notation is PowerShell-specific and not available in Bash).
  • Alternate the order of CLI and PowerShell examples to avoid implicit prioritization.
  • Include screenshots or instructions for accessing Cloud Shell from non-Windows platforms (e.g., Azure CLI from Linux/macOS terminals).
  • Clarify that the Azure portal is cross-platform and provide links or instructions for using Cloud Shell outside the portal (e.g., via direct CLI or SSH).
