Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias, especially in the 'Generate a service principal' section, which provides only a PowerShell script and instructions for running it in a Windows PowerShell environment. There are no examples or guidance for Linux/macOS users (e.g., Bash, Azure CLI), and the prerequisite explicitly requires Azure PowerShell. Windows-specific tools and patterns are mentioned exclusively, with no parity for other platforms.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent instructions and scripts for Linux/macOS users using Bash and Azure CLI.
  • Add Azure CLI commands for service principal creation and role assignment.
  • Clarify that PowerShell Core is cross-platform and, if applicable, provide instructions for running the script on Linux/macOS.
  • Reorder examples or add a note to ensure Linux/macOS users are equally supported.
  • Explicitly mention platform compatibility for all scripts and commands.
