Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Azure PowerShell, with all deployment steps and code samples using PowerShell commands. There are no equivalent Bash, Azure CLI, or Linux/macOS shell examples provided. References to VM creation link only to Windows VM guides, and connection instructions prioritize RDP (Windows) before SSH (Linux). This creates friction for Linux/macOS users who may prefer Bash or Azure CLI and need Linux-specific VM creation guidance.
Recommendations
  • Add parallel Azure CLI (Bash) examples for all deployment steps, including resource group, VNet, subnet, public IP, and Bastion creation.
  • Include links to Linux VM creation guides alongside Windows VM guides.
  • Present both RDP (Windows) and SSH (Linux) connection instructions with equal prominence.
  • Clearly indicate that PowerShell commands can be run on macOS/Linux via Azure Cloud Shell, but also provide native Bash/CLI alternatives.
  • Consider restructuring the documentation to present CLI and PowerShell options side-by-side, or provide a selector for preferred platform.
