Summary
The documentation provides command-line examples for Azure CLI, Azure PowerShell, and portal-based workflows. While Azure CLI is cross-platform, Azure PowerShell is primarily associated with Windows environments and is presented alongside CLI examples. There is no explicit mention of Linux-specific tools or shell commands (e.g., curl, dig), and the use of PowerShell is given equal prominence to CLI, which may suggest a Windows bias. Additionally, the documentation does not provide Linux shell alternatives for tasks like querying outbound IP addresses or checking resource properties.
Recommendations
  • Include Linux shell command examples (e.g., using curl, dig, jq) for tasks such as DNS lookup and querying Azure resources via REST API.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI commands work on Windows, Linux, and macOS, and consider providing sample shell syntax for Bash/zsh.
  • Where PowerShell is shown, offer equivalent Bash or shell script examples for Linux users.
  • Explicitly mention cross-platform compatibility for each tool and avoid assuming PowerShell as the default scripting environment.
  • Add notes or tabs for Linux/macOS users where workflows or commands may differ.
