Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on PowerShell-based workflows and examples, which are most commonly used and supported on Windows. All CLI examples use PowerShell cmdlets, and even REST API and ARM template deployment steps are shown using PowerShell. There are no Bash, Azure CLI, or Linux-native shell examples, nor are cross-platform alternatives mentioned. The Python example is limited to runbook usage and does not cover setup or deployment steps. The documentation implicitly assumes users are on Windows or have PowerShell available, creating friction for Linux/macOS users.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent Azure CLI (az) examples for all PowerShell cmdlets shown, especially for resource creation, identity assignment, and role assignment.
- Show REST API invocation examples using curl or httpie, which are standard on Linux/macOS.
- For ARM template deployment, provide Azure CLI (az deployment group create) commands alongside PowerShell.
- Clarify cross-platform support for PowerShell Core and note any OS-specific limitations.
- Present examples in a platform-neutral order (e.g., Azure portal, Azure CLI, PowerShell, REST API), or group them by platform.
- Explicitly mention that PowerShell examples can be run on Linux/macOS with PowerShell Core, or provide links to installation instructions.
