Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell examples for all steps, but PowerShell is a Windows-centric tool and is presented as an equal alternative to Azure CLI. There is no mention of Linux-specific shell patterns (e.g., Bash), nor are there any explicit Linux-oriented instructions or troubleshooting notes. PowerShell installation and usage is highlighted in prerequisites, which may suggest a bias toward Windows users. The CLI examples are generic, but the presence and parity of PowerShell throughout implies a Windows-first mindset.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Bash shell examples for Linux/macOS users, especially for variable assignment and file paths.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI works natively on Linux/macOS and provide installation instructions for those platforms.
  • De-emphasize PowerShell as a primary tool, or note that it is mainly for Windows users.
  • Include troubleshooting notes for common Linux/macOS issues (e.g., file permissions, path formats).
  • Where file paths are shown, use POSIX-style paths (./azuredeploy.json) in CLI examples and clarify Windows-style (\.\azuredeploy.json) in PowerShell.
