Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. PowerShell is featured as a primary automation method, with detailed step-by-step instructions and example cmdlets, which are inherently Windows-centric. The prerequisites for PowerShell specifically mention installation of Azure PowerShell, a tool most commonly used on Windows. The structure of the page and the zone pivots present the Azure portal (GUI, often accessed from Windows) and PowerShell before the Azure CLI, which is more cross-platform and Linux-friendly. There is no mention of Linux-specific shell usage, nor are Bash or Linux-native scripting examples provided. The CLI section does not reference Linux environments or shell integration, and the overall documentation assumes familiarity with Windows tools and patterns.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Bash/Linux shell examples for Azure CLI commands, including how to run them in typical Linux environments.
  • Include notes or sections on installing and using Azure CLI and PowerShell on Linux and macOS, not just Windows.
  • Present CLI examples before PowerShell in the documentation, or at least give them equal prominence.
  • Reference Linux-native tools or scripting patterns where appropriate, such as using environment variables, jq for JSON parsing, or shell scripting for automation.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI is cross-platform and provide links to installation instructions for Linux and macOS.
  • Avoid assuming the use of Windows-only tools; mention alternatives for Linux users when discussing prerequisites and setup.
