Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively providing PowerShell examples for command-line operations, with no mention of cross-platform alternatives such as Azure CLI, Bash, or REST API usage. All automation and scripting guidance is centered on PowerShell, a Windows-centric tool, and these examples are presented before any mention of platform-neutral or Linux-friendly approaches. There is no guidance for Linux or macOS users, nor are equivalent commands or workflows provided for those platforms.
Recommendations
  • Add Azure CLI examples alongside PowerShell for all command-line tasks, as Azure CLI is cross-platform and widely used on Linux and macOS.
  • Include REST API examples for advanced users who may prefer direct API calls, which are platform-agnostic.
  • Explicitly state platform compatibility for all commands and tools, clarifying which steps work on Windows, Linux, and macOS.
  • Provide Bash script snippets for common workflows to support Linux users.
  • Reorder examples so that cross-platform tools (Azure CLI, REST API) are presented before or alongside PowerShell, avoiding a 'Windows first' impression.
  • Add a note or section on how to install and use PowerShell Core on Linux/macOS if PowerShell must be used, and clarify any differences.
