Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing Windows-centric tools (Azure portal, PowerShell) and providing screenshots and workflow examples exclusively using the Azure portal UI, which is most commonly accessed from Windows environments. While SDK and REST API options are mentioned, there are no explicit Linux/macOS CLI examples (such as Azure CLI), nor are Linux-specific workflows or screenshots provided. PowerShell is listed as a primary scripting option, with no parity for Bash or Azure CLI. This may create friction for Linux/macOS users who prefer or require command-line or non-GUI approaches.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Azure CLI examples for all major steps (creating managed identities, associating them, managing credentials, etc.), as Azure CLI is cross-platform.
  • Include screenshots or workflow descriptions for non-Windows environments, such as using Azure CLI or REST API from Linux/macOS.
  • Reference Bash scripting alongside PowerShell in the 'Managing credentials with scripts' section.
  • Order tool references to mention cross-platform options (Azure CLI, REST API) before Windows-specific ones (PowerShell).
  • Clarify that all steps can be performed from Linux/macOS using CLI or REST API, and provide links to relevant documentation.
