Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Visual Studio and PowerShell, both of which are primarily Windows-centric tools. All examples and workflow steps assume the use of Visual Studio (Windows-only) and PowerShell scripts for deployment, with no mention of Linux/macOS alternatives or cross-platform tooling. There are no CLI, VS Code, or Bash examples, and no guidance for users on non-Windows platforms.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent instructions for deploying Azure Resource Manager templates using Azure CLI, which is cross-platform.
  • Provide examples using VS Code (available on Windows, Linux, and macOS) for authoring and deploying templates.
  • Include Bash script examples for deployment, or reference how to use PowerShell Core on Linux/macOS.
  • Clearly state platform requirements and offer alternative workflows for Linux/macOS users.
  • Mention and link to cross-platform tools such as Azure CLI, Bicep, and VS Code extensions for ARM templates.
