Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a bias towards Windows environments, particularly in its examples for requesting authorization tokens. PowerShell/MSAL.PS is featured extensively, with no equivalent Linux or cross-platform scripting examples (such as Bash/cURL or Python). The Azure CLI example is present, but PowerShell is given more detailed coverage. There is no mention of Linux-specific tools or workflows, and the documentation does not provide parity for users on non-Windows platforms.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux-friendly examples for requesting authorization tokens, such as using Bash with curl or Python scripts.
  • Provide parity in example coverage: if PowerShell is shown, also show Bash/cURL and/or Python equivalents.
  • Explicitly mention cross-platform tools and clarify which examples work on Linux/macOS as well as Windows.
  • Where possible, use Azure CLI as the primary example, since it is cross-platform, and supplement with platform-specific alternatives.
  • Review documentation for other areas where Windows-centric tools or workflows are assumed, and add Linux/macOS alternatives.
