Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell examples for deploying and managing resources, but PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) is given equal prominence to CLI, and is always listed second. There are no explicit Linux-specific instructions or examples (e.g., Bash scripting, Linux package installation), nor is there mention of Linux-native tools. However, the use of Azure CLI is cross-platform, and the instructions do not require Windows-only tools. The documentation does not show explicit bias in tool choice, but the inclusion of PowerShell examples and terminology may subtly favor Windows users.
Recommendations
  • Clarify that Azure CLI commands work on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and recommend CLI as the default for cross-platform usage.
  • Add explicit notes or examples for running commands in Bash or other Linux shells, especially for Linux users.
  • Consider listing CLI examples before PowerShell, or grouping PowerShell as an alternative for Windows users.
  • If relevant, mention installation steps for Azure CLI on Linux.
  • Avoid assuming PowerShell is available on all platforms; clarify platform requirements for PowerShell examples.
