Summary
The documentation demonstrates a notable Windows bias, especially in CI workflow examples for both GitHub Actions and Azure Pipelines. PowerShell-based tasks and Windows-centric tools (AzPowershell, AzureCLI with 'pscore', dotnet CLI) are used exclusively or shown first, even when the runner is 'ubuntu-latest'. There is no mention of Linux-native equivalents (e.g., bash, sh), nor are there alternative shell examples for Linux/macOS users. The authentication and setup steps also reference Azure PowerShell and CLI commands without Linux-specific alternatives.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux/macOS shell equivalents (bash/sh) for all PowerShell and Windows tool examples.
- Include explicit instructions or examples for running setup and authentication steps on Linux/macOS environments.
- When showing CI workflow YAML, offer both PowerShell and bash script variants, or clarify cross-platform compatibility.
- Avoid defaulting to Windows tools (AzPowershell, PowerShell@2) in examples; use platform-agnostic commands where possible.
- Clearly state which steps are OS-agnostic and which require adaptation for non-Windows environments.
