Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell examples for deploying ARM templates. While Azure CLI is cross-platform, the PowerShell examples are inherently Windows-centric, and PowerShell is presented as a primary method alongside CLI. There is no explicit mention of Linux/macOS-specific considerations, nor are Bash or shell script examples provided. The use of Azure Cloud Shell mitigates some bias, but the prominence of PowerShell and lack of Linux/macOS-specific instructions or troubleshooting tips indicate a mild Windows bias.
Recommendations
  • Add Bash or shell script examples for Linux/macOS users, especially for local execution outside Cloud Shell.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI commands work natively on Linux/macOS and Windows, and provide any OS-specific notes if needed.
  • Note that PowerShell Core is available cross-platform, but traditional PowerShell is Windows-only; clarify which is used.
  • Include troubleshooting or installation guidance for Linux/macOS users (e.g., how to install Azure CLI, PowerShell Core).
  • Consider listing Azure CLI (cross-platform) examples before PowerShell (Windows-centric) examples.
