Summary
The documentation provides both Bash and PowerShell examples for all command-line steps, ensuring coverage for both Linux and Windows users. However, PowerShell examples are given equal prominence as Bash, and in some cases, PowerShell syntax is used for Azure CLI commands that are platform-agnostic. There is a slight Windows bias in the sense that PowerShell is featured as the primary alternative to Bash, rather than including other Linux-native shells or scripting environments. No explicit Windows-only tools or patterns are used, and Linux examples are not missing.
Recommendations
  • Clarify that Azure CLI commands work identically in Bash and PowerShell, and that PowerShell is not required on Windows if Bash is available.
  • Consider including a note that Bash examples can be run on Windows using WSL or Git Bash, to encourage Linux parity for Windows users.
  • If possible, add examples for other Linux shells (e.g., zsh) or scripting environments, or clarify that Bash syntax is representative of most Linux shells.
  • Avoid implying that PowerShell is the default or preferred scripting environment for Windows users unless there is a technical reason.
  • Ensure that any platform-specific nuances (e.g., file path separators, environment variable syntax) are highlighted where relevant.
