Summary
The documentation provides examples for Azure CLI, Azure PowerShell, and the Azure Portal, but does not include explicit Linux shell (bash) or cross-platform scripting examples. PowerShell is featured as a primary scripting interface, which is traditionally Windows-centric, and is always presented alongside or immediately after the CLI example. There are no Linux- or macOS-specific instructions, nor are there any notes about running the CLI in bash or other Unix shells. This may make Linux users feel less directly supported, especially as PowerShell is still more commonly associated with Windows environments.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit bash or shell script examples for each query, demonstrating usage in a typical Linux environment.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI commands are cross-platform and can be run in bash, zsh, or other Unix shells, not just Windows Command Prompt or PowerShell.
  • If PowerShell is included, consider also including a bash example or note for parity.
  • Add a section or note about installing and using Azure CLI on Linux/macOS, if relevant.
  • Where possible, avoid presenting PowerShell as the default or primary scripting interface unless there is a clear reason.
