Summary
The documentation page exhibits Windows bias in several ways: PowerShell is presented as a primary automation option, and DNS record instructions for 'Other (General)' link to a Windows-based DNS guide, with no mention of Linux/BIND or macOS equivalents. Windows tools and patterns are referenced, and Linux/macOS-specific guidance is missing. The order of pivots and examples tends to favor Windows technologies (Azure portal, PowerShell) before Linux-friendly options (Azure CLI).
Recommendations
  • Add explicit instructions or links for managing DNS records using Linux tools (e.g., BIND, `dig`, `nsupdate`) and macOS equivalents.
  • Provide parity in examples for Linux/macOS users, such as shell commands for DNS configuration and verification.
  • Reorder pivots or examples so that cross-platform tools (Azure CLI) are shown before or alongside Windows-specific tools (PowerShell).
  • Clarify that PowerShell is available cross-platform, but also offer bash/zsh alternatives where appropriate.
  • Replace or supplement the 'Other (General)' DNS guide with instructions for Linux-based DNS servers.
