Summary
The documentation consistently uses Windows-style file paths (e.g., c:\export) in both Azure PowerShell and Azure CLI examples, and does not provide Linux/macOS equivalents. This may confuse or hinder users on non-Windows platforms. Additionally, references to deployment steps and exported templates link to PowerShell-specific instructions, with no mention of Bash, Linux, or cross-platform alternatives.
Recommendations
  • Include Linux/macOS file path examples (e.g., /home/user/export) alongside Windows paths in all CLI and PowerShell commands.
  • Explicitly state that Azure CLI is cross-platform and provide Bash shell examples where appropriate.
  • Add links to documentation for deploying templates using Bash or Azure CLI on Linux/macOS, not just PowerShell.
  • Where file paths are referenced, clarify platform differences and provide guidance for users on non-Windows systems.
