Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a bias toward Windows environments by providing a detailed PowerShell script for packaging and uploading the managed application artifacts to Azure Storage, while omitting equivalent instructions for Linux/macOS users (e.g., Bash or Azure CLI). The PowerShell example appears before the Azure CLI deployment steps, and there is no mention of cross-platform alternatives for the artifact upload process. The use of Windows-specific tools and scripting patterns (e.g., $RANDOM, backtick line continuation, PowerShell cmdlets) further reinforces the Windows-centric approach.
Recommendations
  • Provide Bash/Azure CLI examples for packaging and uploading the application artifacts to Azure Storage, suitable for Linux/macOS users.
  • Present cross-platform instructions side-by-side or in tabs, ensuring parity and visibility for both Windows and Linux users.
  • Avoid using Windows-specific scripting features (e.g., backtick line continuation) without offering alternatives.
  • Explicitly mention that both PowerShell and Bash/CLI can be used, and link to relevant cross-platform documentation.
  • Consider including a table or section summarizing equivalent commands for Windows (PowerShell), Linux (Bash), and macOS.
