Summary
The documentation page exhibits a moderate Windows bias. Several command examples use PowerShell syntax and variables (e.g., $resourceGroup, $identityName), especially in identity setup and role assignment sections. PowerShell is used for scripting Azure CLI commands, which is not standard on Linux/macOS. While Bash examples are present, PowerShell commands are shown first or exclusively in critical steps. The documentation references the Azure portal and Cloud Shell (which is cross-platform but defaults to Bash), but scripting patterns and variable usage favor Windows/PowerShell users. There are no explicit Linux/macOS-only examples, and Linux equivalents for PowerShell scripting are missing.
Recommendations
  • Provide all command examples in both Bash and PowerShell, or default to Bash for scripting Azure CLI commands.
  • Avoid using PowerShell variable syntax ($var) in CLI examples; use Bash syntax (var=value) for cross-platform compatibility.
  • Explicitly state that all Azure CLI commands can be run in Bash, and provide Bash script blocks for identity and role assignment steps.
  • Add notes or sections for Linux/macOS users, clarifying how to adapt PowerShell examples to Bash.
  • Ensure that critical steps (e.g., role assignment, resource queries) have Bash equivalents shown before or alongside PowerShell.
