Summary
The documentation mentions both Bash and PowerShell as available shell experiences in Azure Cloud Shell, but PowerShell and Azure PowerShell cmdlets are referenced before Bash and Azure CLI in several places. The access points list puts Azure PowerShell documentation before Azure CLI documentation, and deployment examples mention Azure PowerShell before Azure CLI. This ordering subtly prioritizes Windows-centric tools and workflows, which may imply a bias toward Windows users.
Recommendations
- Alternate the order of Bash/Azure CLI and PowerShell references to avoid implying priority.
- Ensure examples and documentation links for both Bash/Azure CLI and PowerShell are provided equally and in parallel.
- Explicitly mention Linux-friendly workflows and tools (e.g., scripting with Bash, using Linux utilities) alongside PowerShell examples.
- In lists, avoid consistently listing Windows/PowerShell tools before Linux/Bash equivalents.
- Highlight that Cloud Shell runs on a Linux host and that Bash is a first-class experience.
