Summary
The documentation consistently refers to Azure as 'Windows Azure Platform', uses 'Windows' terminology, and presents all examples and screenshots from the Azure portal UI, which is platform-agnostic but the naming and references are Windows-centric. There are no CLI or automation examples (e.g., Azure CLI, PowerShell, Bash), nor any Linux/macOS-specific guidance. The documentation does not mention or provide parity for Linux tools or workflows, such as using Azure CLI on Linux/macOS, or integrating with Linux-based automation. This creates friction for Linux/macOS users who may prefer or require command-line or scriptable approaches.
Recommendations
  • Add Azure CLI examples for all major steps (creating storage account, configuring firewalls, managing credentials, etc.), as Azure CLI is cross-platform and widely used on Linux/macOS.
  • Avoid using 'Windows Azure Platform' as the only selectable option; clarify if this is a legacy naming or provide equivalent instructions for Linux/macOS users.
  • Include screenshots or instructions for Linux/macOS environments where relevant, especially for credential management and automation.
  • Explicitly mention that all steps can be performed from Linux/macOS using the Azure portal and Azure CLI, and link to relevant Azure CLI documentation.
  • Provide PowerShell examples only as an alternative, not as the primary or sole method.
