Summary
The documentation is heavily biased toward Windows environments, with all examples and instructions using PowerShell cmdlets and syntax. The prerequisites explicitly require a Windows client and PowerShell, with no mention of Linux or cross-platform alternatives. There are no Bash, Linux shell, or cross-platform CLI examples, and no guidance for users on Linux or macOS systems. All tooling and patterns are Windows-centric, and the documentation assumes the reader is operating in a Windows environment throughout.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent instructions and examples for Linux and macOS users, using Azure CLI, Bash, or other cross-platform tools where possible.
  • Clarify whether the PowerShell module can be used on PowerShell Core (pwsh) on Linux/macOS, and provide installation and usage steps for those platforms if supported.
  • If the module is Windows-only, explicitly state this limitation and suggest alternative workflows for non-Windows users (e.g., using REST APIs, Azure CLI, or the web UI).
  • Provide parity in troubleshooting and configuration steps for Linux environments, including file path conventions and command syntax.
  • Consider reordering sections or providing tabs for Windows and Linux workflows to avoid Windows-first bias.
