Summary
The documentation page focuses exclusively on using the Azure portal UI to create an Automation account, with no mention of command-line alternatives (such as Azure CLI or Bash). The only 'Next steps' tutorial explicitly references PowerShell, which is primarily a Windows-centric tool, and does not provide parity for Linux users (e.g., Bash, Azure CLI, or Python SDK). There are no examples or instructions tailored for Linux environments, nor are Linux tools or patterns mentioned.
Recommendations
- Include alternative instructions for creating an Automation account using Azure CLI and Bash, which are cross-platform and widely used on Linux.
- Add 'Next steps' links to tutorials for creating runbooks using Azure CLI, Bash, or Python SDK, not just PowerShell.
- Explicitly mention that PowerShell is available cross-platform, but also provide Linux-native examples to ensure parity.
- Where screenshots or UI instructions are given, consider adding CLI equivalents for users who prefer or require command-line automation.
