Summary
The documentation page exhibits a notable Windows bias. Most automation and scripting examples use PowerShell, including role assignment, DNS entry creation, and private endpoint management. The use of Windows-specific tools (PowerShell scripts, .ps1 files, and references to uploading files in the PowerShell window) is pervasive, with no equivalent Bash, Azure CLI, or Linux/macOS shell examples. The instructions for uploading and running scripts are tailored to Windows users, and Windows terminology (e.g., host files, domain controller) is used. Linux/macOS users are left to infer how to adapt these steps, creating friction and potential confusion.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Azure CLI and Bash examples for all PowerShell scripts and automation steps.
  • Include instructions for uploading and running scripts in Bash/Cloud Shell for Linux/macOS users.
  • Add examples of managing private endpoints, DNS records, and permissions using Azure CLI and REST API via curl.
  • Clarify terminology for cross-platform users (e.g., explain host file locations on Linux/macOS).
  • Ensure that all critical steps (role assignment, DNS management, endpoint creation) have platform-neutral or platform-specific guidance for both Windows and Linux/macOS.
