Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows and PowerShell usage. All scripting examples are provided in PowerShell (.ps1), and instructions explicitly direct users to select PowerShell in Azure Cloud Shell, even when Bash is available. There are no equivalent Bash or cross-platform examples, nor is there mention of how to perform the same tasks on Linux or macOS systems. The prerequisites and workflow assume familiarity with Windows-centric tools and patterns.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Bash script examples for Linux/macOS users, using Azure CLI and REST API calls.
  • Update instructions to mention both Bash and PowerShell options in Azure Cloud Shell, and clarify which steps are cross-platform.
  • Include notes on how to run the script from Linux/macOS environments, including installation of necessary modules (e.g., Azure CLI, PowerShell Core).
  • Add troubleshooting or FAQ sections for common Linux/macOS issues (e.g., file permissions, authentication differences).
  • Where possible, use generic Azure REST API examples that can be executed from any platform.
