Summary
The documentation page exhibits a moderate Windows bias. PowerShell examples and terminology are presented first and most frequently, with detailed inline and external script samples using PowerShell. The main walkthrough for running scripts in Cloud Shell uses PowerShell exclusively, and the 'Work with outputs' section is PowerShell-focused before mentioning CLI/bash. While Azure CLI and bash are supported and referenced, Linux/macOS users may find fewer direct examples and less guidance, especially for bash scripting and troubleshooting. Some sections (e.g., error handling, outputs, troubleshooting) provide more detail for PowerShell than for bash/CLI.
Recommendations
  • Provide parallel bash/CLI examples for every PowerShell sample, especially in the 'Sample templates', 'Use inline scripts', and 'Work with outputs' sections.
  • In walkthroughs and 'Try it' instructions, offer both PowerShell and bash/CLI commands, or clarify that Cloud Shell supports both environments.
  • Balance the order of presentation: alternate or group PowerShell and CLI/bash examples, rather than always listing PowerShell first.
  • Expand troubleshooting and error handling guidance for bash/CLI scripts, matching the detail given for PowerShell.
  • Clarify that all scripting is executed in Linux containers, and highlight any OS-specific differences or limitations.
