Summary
The documentation is generally neutral and platform-agnostic, focusing on ARM template JSON syntax. However, in the 'environment' function section, when suggesting how to list registered Azure environments, the documentation mentions the Windows PowerShell cmdlet 'Get-AzEnvironment' after the cross-platform 'az cloud list' CLI command. While both tools are referenced, the PowerShell cmdlet is mentioned second, which is a positive sign, but its inclusion without a corresponding Linux shell example (such as Bash) or clarification that 'az' is cross-platform could be improved.
Recommendations
  • Clarify that the 'az' CLI is cross-platform and works on Windows, Linux, and macOS.
  • When referencing PowerShell cmdlets, also mention that they are available on PowerShell Core, which is cross-platform, or clarify if they are Windows-only.
  • Consider providing example commands for both Bash (Linux/macOS) and PowerShell (Windows), or explicitly state that the 'az' CLI example is suitable for all platforms.
  • Continue to avoid Windows-specific tooling or patterns unless there is a clear cross-platform equivalent, and always present cross-platform options first.
