Summary
The documentation provides command-line examples exclusively using Azure PowerShell, a tool most commonly used on Windows and less natively integrated on Linux/macOS. There are no CLI examples using Azure CLI (az), which is cross-platform and preferred by many Linux/macOS users. The structure presents PowerShell as the only scripting option, creating friction for non-Windows users. Additionally, the documentation refers to the Azure portal (web-based, cross-platform) and PowerShell, but omits Bash, Azure CLI, or ARM template examples.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent Azure CLI (az) command examples for all PowerShell instructions.
  • Include Bash scripting examples where appropriate.
  • Clarify that Azure PowerShell can be installed and used on Linux/macOS, but recommend Azure CLI for those platforms.
  • Consider adding ARM template or Bicep examples for infrastructure-as-code parity.
  • Present Azure CLI examples before or alongside PowerShell to avoid Windows-first perception.
