Summary
The documentation demonstrates a mild Windows bias by consistently including Azure PowerShell examples alongside REST and Azure CLI, even when PowerShell is not supported for certain operations (with explicit notes to use CLI or REST instead). PowerShell instructions (including installation steps) are provided in detail, and PowerShell is presented as a primary automation option. While Azure CLI is included throughout and is cross-platform, the presence and prominence of PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) and its installation instructions may signal a preference for Windows environments. There are no Linux-specific examples, troubleshooting, or tool mentions, and no explicit parity notes for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Clarify that Azure CLI is fully cross-platform and highlight its use for Linux/macOS users.
  • Add notes or examples for Linux/macOS environments, such as shell scripting or CLI usage in Bash.
  • Avoid unnecessary PowerShell installation instructions unless CLI is not available or is less capable.
  • Where PowerShell is not supported, consider removing the tab entirely or providing a brief explanation for Linux users.
  • Explicitly mention that all CLI examples work on Linux/macOS and Windows, and provide troubleshooting tips for non-Windows platforms if relevant.
