Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Several command examples use PowerShell scripting and variables (e.g., $resourceGroup, $identityName), which are specific to Windows environments and not directly compatible with Linux/macOS shells. PowerShell examples are provided before or instead of Bash equivalents in key identity and role assignment steps. The backup section references PowerShell scripts as part of the exported templates. While Azure CLI and Bash commands are present, the use of PowerShell syntax and variables may hinder Linux parity and accessibility.
Recommendations
  • Provide all command examples in both Bash (sh) and PowerShell, or default to Bash for cross-platform compatibility.
  • Replace PowerShell variable syntax ($var) with Bash equivalents (var=value) and use Bash command substitution where appropriate.
  • Explicitly mention Linux/macOS compatibility for all CLI commands and scripts.
  • Ensure that any referenced scripts (e.g., in exported templates) include Bash versions alongside PowerShell.
  • Review and update all code blocks to use Bash unless a Windows-specific scenario is being described.
  • Add a note clarifying that PowerShell commands are for Windows users and provide Bash alternatives for Linux/macOS users.
