Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by consistently presenting Azure PowerShell examples alongside or immediately after Azure CLI examples, with no equivalent Linux shell or Bash scripting examples for key authentication flows. Windows-specific tools (PowerShell) are given parity with the cross-platform Azure CLI, but Linux-native patterns (e.g., Bash, shell scripting) are not shown. The 'Next steps' section also highlights PowerShell and CLI, omitting Linux/Bash walkthroughs. While there is mention of using 'podman' as an alternative to Docker (relevant for Linux), this is a minor section and does not address broader Linux usage patterns.
Recommendations
  • Add Bash shell scripting examples for all authentication flows, especially for service principal and admin account scenarios.
  • Include explicit Linux usage instructions (e.g., environment variable export, file paths, credential storage) where relevant.
  • Provide parity for Linux-native tools and workflows (e.g., using Bash with az CLI, integrating with systemd for unattended authentication).
  • In 'Next steps', add links to Linux/Bash getting started guides for Azure Container Registry.
  • Where PowerShell is mentioned, clarify its cross-platform availability, but also offer native Linux alternatives.
  • Ensure that examples and instructions do not assume Windows as the default environment.
