Summary
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. It consistently presents Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell instructions side-by-side, but PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) is given equal prominence as Azure CLI, which is more cross-platform. When discussing how to create a Kubernetes cluster, Docker for Windows is mentioned explicitly alongside Docker for Mac, but Linux-native options (such as Minikube or native kubeadm) are not mentioned. Proxy environment variable examples are given for Bash (cross-platform) and PowerShell (Windows-centric), but do not mention Linux-specific shell variants or tools. There are no explicit Linux command-line examples (e.g., using Linux package managers, native Linux tools, or Linux-specific instructions), and Windows tools/patterns (PowerShell, Docker for Windows) are mentioned at least as prominently as their Linux equivalents.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Linux-native instructions and examples, such as using Minikube or kubeadm for cluster creation.
  • Include Linux shell environment variable examples (e.g., for bash/zsh) and clarify cross-platform applicability.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI is cross-platform and can be used on Linux, Mac, and Windows, while PowerShell is primarily Windows-centric.
  • Present Linux-native tools and workflows before or alongside Windows-specific ones, rather than giving Windows tools equal or greater prominence.
  • Ensure troubleshooting and cleanup instructions include Linux-native commands and considerations.
  • Where Docker for Windows/Mac is mentioned, also mention Docker for Linux or other Linux-native container runtimes.
