Summary
The documentation provides PowerShell examples and instructions for installing the Az PowerShell module, which is primarily a Windows-centric tool. PowerShell is presented as the only command-line example, with no equivalent Bash, CLI, or Linux shell examples. The instructions for .NET, Java, Python, and Node.js are cross-platform, but the only OS-specific tooling mentioned is PowerShell. There is no mention of Linux/macOS command-line alternatives, and PowerShell is listed first in most code example sections.
Recommendations
  • Add Azure CLI examples for each scenario, as Azure CLI is cross-platform and widely used on Linux/macOS.
  • Include Bash or shell script examples for common tasks, such as installing SDKs or querying blobs.
  • Clarify that PowerShell examples can be run on Linux/macOS using PowerShell Core, or provide explicit instructions for those platforms.
  • Reorder examples so that cross-platform tools (e.g., Azure CLI) are presented before Windows-specific tools.
  • Explicitly mention Linux/macOS compatibility in prerequisites and setup sections.
