Summary
The documentation provides extensive coverage of Azure portal and PowerShell workflows, both of which are Windows-centric. PowerShell examples are given in detail, and the Azure portal is emphasized for management tasks. While Azure CLI examples are present (which are cross-platform), there is a lack of explicit Linux/macOS-specific guidance, such as shell scripting nuances, environment setup, or troubleshooting for non-Windows platforms. PowerShell is presented as a primary automation method, which may create friction for Linux/macOS users who typically use Bash or other shells.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Bash shell script examples for Linux/macOS users, especially for resource creation and management tasks.
  • Include notes or troubleshooting tips for running Azure CLI on Linux/macOS, such as authentication, environment variables, and file path differences.
  • Clarify that PowerShell examples are primarily for Windows and suggest alternatives for Linux/macOS users (e.g., Bash, Python, or Azure CLI).
  • Ensure that CLI examples use syntax compatible with Bash (e.g., variable assignment, quoting) and avoid Windows-specific conventions.
  • Provide parity in automation examples, such as showing how to approve/reject endpoints using Azure CLI or REST API, not just PowerShell.
