Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a notable Windows bias. PowerShell scripts are the primary method shown for deploying ARM templates, with references to Visual Studio and Windows-specific tools. The Azure PowerShell task is emphasized, and all script examples use PowerShell (.ps1). The 'AzureFileCopy' task is demonstrated with a 'windows-latest' agent, and there are no Bash, Linux shell, or cross-platform script examples. Linux/macOS users are left without clear guidance for equivalent workflows.
Recommendations
- Include Bash or cross-platform script examples for deploying ARM templates.
- Demonstrate use of Linux/macOS agents and tools (e.g., AzCopy via Bash, Azure CLI) in pipeline YAML.
- Reference Visual Studio Code or other cross-platform editors, not just Visual Studio.
- Provide parity in documentation for Linux/macOS users, such as showing how to stage and deploy templates using Azure CLI or Bash scripts.
- Clarify which tasks/tools are cross-platform and which are Windows-only.
- Order examples so that cross-platform methods are shown first or alongside Windows-specific ones.
