Summary
The documentation provides parallel instructions for Azure Portal, Azure CLI, and Azure PowerShell throughout, but PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) is consistently presented as a primary option alongside CLI. There is no explicit mention of Linux/macOS alternatives to PowerShell, nor guidance for users who may not have access to PowerShell. The CLI examples are cross-platform, but PowerShell is a Windows-specific tool and its inclusion may suggest Windows bias. Additionally, PowerShell instructions are given equal prominence to CLI, which is more universal.
Recommendations
  • Clarify that Azure CLI is fully supported on Linux/macOS and is the recommended cross-platform tool.
  • Add notes indicating that Azure PowerShell is primarily for Windows users, and suggest CLI for Linux/macOS.
  • Consider presenting CLI examples before PowerShell, or grouping PowerShell as a Windows-specific section.
  • Explicitly mention that all tasks can be completed on Linux/macOS using the CLI.
  • If possible, add bash shell script examples for common tasks to further support Linux users.
