Summary
The documentation shows a Windows bias in the CLI installation instructions, providing only a PowerShell-based install command for the Azure Developer CLI and omitting Linux/macOS alternatives. The use of PowerShell is presented as the default CLI installation method, and there are no bash/curl/wget examples for non-Windows users. While the rest of the guide is generally cross-platform (focusing on Visual Studio Code and the azd CLI), the initial setup steps may confuse or exclude Linux/macOS users.
Recommendations
- Provide explicit installation instructions for Linux and macOS, using bash/curl/wget commands alongside the PowerShell example.
- Use tabbed sections for installation steps, e.g., [Windows], [Linux], [macOS], to ensure parity and clarity for all platforms.
- Avoid presenting Windows/PowerShell commands as the default or only CLI method; always include cross-platform alternatives.
- Add a note clarifying that azd is cross-platform and link to the official installation guide for all supported operating systems.
