Summary
The documentation page exhibits a notable Windows bias. All command-line examples for interacting with Azure (creating the key vault, deploying templates, cleaning up resources) use Azure PowerShell, with no Azure CLI (az) equivalents provided. The template used is for a Windows VM, and the validation step involves downloading an RDP file, which is a Windows-centric workflow. While Cloud Shell is mentioned as supporting Bash, all deployment scripts are PowerShell-based, and Linux/macOS users are not given alternative CLI commands or SSH-based VM connection instructions.
Recommendations
  • Provide Azure CLI (az) command examples alongside PowerShell for all resource creation, deployment, and cleanup steps.
  • Include a Linux VM template example or mention how to adapt the workflow for Linux VMs.
  • For VM connection validation, offer SSH instructions for Linux VMs in addition to RDP for Windows VMs.
  • Ensure that both PowerShell and Bash workflows are equally represented, especially in Cloud Shell contexts.
  • Reference Linux/macOS password requirements and VM creation FAQs, not just Windows.
