Summary
The documentation page exhibits mild Windows bias, primarily through the emphasis on PowerShell for testing ARM templates (arm-ttk) and referencing Windows-centric authoring tools like Visual Studio. PowerShell is mentioned as the primary example for deployment scripts and template testing, with less explicit mention of Bash or Linux/macOS alternatives. Authoring tools section lists Visual Studio and Visual Studio Code, both available cross-platform, but Visual Studio is Windows-only. The order of deployment options lists Azure CLI and PowerShell together, but PowerShell is referenced first in some contexts.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly mention Bash and cross-platform scripting options alongside PowerShell for deployment scripts.
  • Highlight Linux/macOS compatibility for authoring tools, and suggest alternatives to Visual Studio for non-Windows users.
  • Provide examples or references for ARM template testing using Bash or Azure CLI, not just PowerShell (arm-ttk).
  • Ensure deployment instructions and tooling are presented in a platform-neutral order, or alternate which platform is listed first.
