Summary
The documentation exclusively uses PowerShell for all scripting and automation examples, with no mention of Bash, Python, or other cross-platform alternatives. All instructions, screenshots, and code samples are tailored to PowerShell and the AzureRM PowerShell modules, which are most commonly used on Windows. There is no guidance for users who prefer or require Linux-native tools, nor any parity for Bash or CLI-based runbooks.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent examples using Bash scripts and the Azure CLI, which are natively supported on Linux and macOS.
  • Include instructions for creating runbooks using Python, which is cross-platform and supported in Azure Automation.
  • Mention and demonstrate how to use the Azure portal and Automation with non-Windows scripting environments.
  • Provide guidance on installing necessary modules or tools on Linux/macOS, not just Windows.
  • Ensure screenshots and walkthroughs are not exclusively tied to PowerShell, and show parity for other platforms.
