Summary
The documentation provides parallel examples for Azure Portal, Azure CLI, and PowerShell, but PowerShell is given significant prominence and detail, including explicit references to Windows file paths (e.g., D:\testFiles\textfile.csv) and storage operations that are Windows-centric. PowerShell is traditionally associated with Windows, and the examples assume a Windows environment for local file operations. There is no mention of Linux/macOS equivalents for file paths or shell usage, and PowerShell examples are detailed and sometimes referenced as usable in Bash only via Azure Cloud Shell, not locally on Linux/macOS. The CLI examples are cross-platform, but the documentation does not clarify or encourage Linux/macOS usage, nor does it provide guidance for non-Windows users in PowerShell sections.
Recommendations
- Add explicit Linux/macOS examples for file paths and local operations (e.g., use /home/user/testFiles/textfile.csv in CLI and PowerShell examples).
- Clarify that Azure CLI is fully cross-platform and recommend it for Linux/macOS users.
- In PowerShell sections, note that PowerShell Core is available on Linux/macOS and provide examples or notes for those platforms.
- Avoid using Windows-specific file paths in examples, or provide both Windows and Linux/macOS variants.
- Add a note in prerequisites or introduction about cross-platform support and best practices for non-Windows users.
