Summary
The documentation page demonstrates moderate Windows bias. Command-line examples for overriding monitoring configuration are provided for both Azure CLI and PowerShell, but PowerShell is featured as a primary scripting option, which is Windows-specific. There is no mention of Linux shell equivalents (e.g., Bash), and PowerShell is presented before any Linux alternatives. Additionally, references to Visual Studio and Windows-centric tooling appear without equal emphasis on Linux-native tools or workflows. While Azure CLI is cross-platform, the lack of explicit Bash or Linux shell examples and the prioritization of PowerShell and Visual Studio contribute to a Windows-first orientation.
Recommendations
  • Add Bash shell examples alongside PowerShell for all command-line instructions, especially for overriding app settings.
  • Explicitly mention that Azure CLI commands can be run on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and provide sample Bash syntax (e.g., export, az commands) where appropriate.
  • Include references to Linux-native editors (e.g., VS Code on Linux, vim, nano) and workflows in sections discussing Visual Studio or Windows-centric tools.
  • Ensure that instructions for managing app settings in the Azure portal clarify any Linux-specific caveats (such as the note about periods in app settings on Linux plans), and provide alternative Linux-friendly approaches.
  • Where PowerShell is used, clarify its availability on Linux and macOS, or offer alternative shell scripting examples.
