Summary
The documentation presents both PowerShell (Windows) and Bash (Linux/macOS) examples for assigning a managed identity via Azure CLI, but Windows/PowerShell is listed first and receives slightly more detailed instructions (e.g., explicit mention of Notepad as a text editor, which is Windows-specific). The Bash instructions mention Notepad++ and VS Code, but also reference running scripts via WSL, implying a Windows context for Bash usage. There is a subtle preference for Windows tools and patterns in the ordering and examples.
Recommendations
  • Alternate the order of PowerShell and Bash sections, or present them side-by-side to avoid implicit prioritization.
  • Use cross-platform text editor examples (e.g., VS Code, nano, vim) and avoid Windows-specific editors like Notepad unless equally mentioning Linux/macOS equivalents.
  • Clarify that Bash instructions can be run natively on Linux/macOS, not just via WSL on Windows.
  • Add explicit notes about platform compatibility for each script, ensuring Linux/macOS users are addressed directly.
  • Consider including a table or summary comparing the steps for both platforms to reinforce parity.
