Summary
The documentation provides both Azure PowerShell and Azure CLI examples for most tasks, but PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) is consistently shown first. There is a slight emphasis on Windows paths and tools, with explicit Windows path examples and PowerShell commands, while Linux/macOS paths are mentioned but less detailed. No Linux-specific shell (bash) or scripting examples are provided, and PowerShell is referenced as a default credential source. The overall pattern prioritizes Windows/PowerShell usage and terminology.
Recommendations
  • Alternate the order of examples so that Azure CLI (cross-platform) is shown first, or present CLI and PowerShell examples side-by-side.
  • Include bash or shell script examples for Linux/macOS users where appropriate.
  • Expand Linux/macOS path examples to match the detail given for Windows.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI works on all platforms and is recommended for cross-platform use.
  • Mention cross-platform editors and tools (e.g., VS Code) equally for all OSes.
  • Explicitly state that PowerShell Core is available on Linux/macOS, or link to installation guides for non-Windows platforms.
