Summary
The documentation mentions exporting policy and initiative definitions via PowerShell, CLI, or Azure Resource Graph, listing PowerShell first and referencing it as a primary tool. No explicit Linux/macOS shell examples (e.g., Bash, az CLI on Linux) are provided, and there is no mention of platform-specific considerations for Linux or macOS users. The workflow and automation recommendations (GitHub workflows, Azure Pipelines) are platform-neutral, but the lack of Linux/macOS examples and the PowerShell-first pattern create mild friction for non-Windows users.
Recommendations
- Provide explicit examples for Linux/macOS users, such as az CLI commands run in Bash.
- When listing tools, alternate or randomize the order, or mention CLI before PowerShell to avoid Windows-first bias.
- Add notes or links about running Azure CLI and automation on Linux/macOS, including any platform-specific considerations.
- Include sample scripts for both PowerShell and Bash where relevant.
- Clarify that all automation steps can be performed cross-platform and highlight any differences if present.
