Summary
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias, especially in the tooling and examples provided for API testing and authentication. Windows-centric tools like Visual Studio, PowerShell, and ARMClient (which requires Visual Studio for building) are listed first or exclusively, with limited mention of Linux/macOS alternatives. PowerShell is highlighted as a primary method for API interaction, and ARMClient setup assumes a Windows environment. Linux/macOS users may experience friction but can use alternatives like curl and Insomnia, which are mentioned but not emphasized.
Recommendations
- Explicitly provide Linux/macOS instructions for ARMClient setup, or recommend cross-platform alternatives for obtaining Azure authentication tokens (e.g., Azure CLI, REST API with curl).
- List cross-platform tools (curl, Insomnia, Bruno) before Windows-specific ones in API testing sections.
- Include CLI and bash examples alongside PowerShell for API interactions.
- Clarify which steps are platform-agnostic and which require Windows, and offer alternatives where possible.
- Add notes or links for Linux/macOS users on how to perform equivalent actions (e.g., building ARMClient, using Azure CLI).
