Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by providing PowerShell-based instructions for creating Microsoft Entra application identities, without offering equivalent CLI or Bash examples for Linux/macOS users. The use of PowerShell is presented as the only command-line option, and Windows-centric tools and patterns (e.g., PowerShell cmdlets, references to 'sts.windows.net') are mentioned exclusively. No Linux or cross-platform alternatives (such as Azure CLI) are provided, and the order of presentation favors Windows tooling before any mention of alternatives.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent Azure CLI (az) examples for all PowerShell instructions, including app registration and service principal creation.
  • Explicitly mention that Azure CLI works on Linux/macOS/Windows and provide links to relevant CLI documentation.
  • Where screenshots or UI instructions are given, clarify that the Azure portal is cross-platform and accessible from any OS.
  • Review references to Windows-specific endpoints or terminology and clarify their applicability to all platforms.
  • Consider adding Bash script examples for automation tasks, especially for Linux users.
  • Ensure all code snippets and deployment templates are OS-agnostic or provide notes on platform compatibility.
