Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by consistently listing Azure PowerShell instructions and examples before Azure CLI and Terraform, both in the main workflow and in verification and cleanup sections. PowerShell is a Windows-centric tool, and its prominence may disadvantage Linux users. There are no explicit Linux shell examples (e.g., bash scripts), nor are there notes about running PowerShell on Linux or macOS. The prerequisites and troubleshooting sections also mention PowerShell before CLI, reinforcing the Windows-first pattern.
Recommendations
  • Alternate the order of PowerShell and CLI examples, or list CLI first to improve parity for Linux users.
  • Add explicit notes that both Azure PowerShell and Azure CLI are cross-platform, and provide links to installation instructions for Linux and macOS.
  • Include bash script examples for common tasks, especially for verification and cleanup, to help Linux users.
  • Clarify that all CLI commands are compatible with Linux/macOS terminals and provide troubleshooting tips for those environments.
  • Mention that PowerShell Core is available on Linux/macOS, if PowerShell examples are retained, and provide guidance for installation on those platforms.
