Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows and PowerShell. All examples use PowerShell syntax and commands, and the prerequisite explicitly refers to 'windows powershell'. There are no Linux/macOS equivalents, nor is there mention of cross-platform alternatives such as Azure CLI or Bash. This creates friction for non-Windows users and may prevent them from completing the task without significant adaptation.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent instructions and examples using Azure CLI, which is cross-platform.
  • Clarify whether the Azure PowerShell module can be used on Linux/macOS (with PowerShell Core), and provide installation instructions for those platforms.
  • Include Bash or shell script examples for file handling and email sending where possible.
  • Rephrase prerequisites and checks to be platform-neutral (e.g., 'in a terminal' instead of 'in a windows powershell').
  • Add notes or links for Linux/macOS users about how to adapt the PowerShell commands or use alternative tools.
