Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Windows-centric tools and workflows. It lists Azure PowerShell before Azure CLI in the prerequisites for service principal creation, and the only code sample provided is in C#/.NET, which is most commonly used on Windows. There are no examples or references for Linux-native tools, languages, or workflows (such as Python, Java, or bash scripting), nor is there guidance for using the management libraries on Linux or macOS. The documentation also omits any mention of cross-platform compatibility or alternative SDKs.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit guidance and examples for using Azure CLI (which is cross-platform) before or alongside Azure PowerShell.
  • Include sample code in a Linux-friendly language (e.g., Python, Java) or clarify .NET Core compatibility for Linux/macOS.
  • Provide instructions for installing and running the management libraries on Linux and macOS, including any required dependencies.
  • Mention cross-platform support and best practices for non-Windows environments.
  • Link to Linux/macOS-specific tutorials or documentation where available.
