Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias primarily through its heavy reliance on PowerShell for automation and scripting examples. The ARM template deployment section explicitly instructs users to deploy using Azure PowerShell first, with Linux-friendly Azure CLI only mentioned as a secondary option. The scripting and command-line automation guidance is almost exclusively PowerShell-based, which is native to Windows and only more recently available on Linux. There is no Bash or Linux shell scripting example, and Windows-centric tools and patterns (such as Set-AzContext, New-AzResourceGroup, New-AzResourceGroupDeployment) are used throughout. The documentation does not provide parity for Linux users in terms of CLI or Bash examples, nor does it mention Linux-specific considerations for repository management or authentication.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Azure CLI and Bash script examples for all automation and deployment scenarios, not just PowerShell.
  • When listing deployment options, present Azure CLI and PowerShell together, or alternate which is shown first, to avoid Windows-first ordering.
  • Include notes or examples for running scripts on Linux, including installation and usage of PowerShell Core on Linux, and highlight any differences.
  • Reference Linux-native tools and patterns where appropriate (e.g., curl, jq, Bash scripting) for REST API calls and resource management.
  • Ensure screenshots and UI instructions are platform-neutral or provide Linux-specific guidance where the experience differs.
