Summary
The documentation consistently presents Azure PowerShell examples before Azure CLI, and in some cases (record set level resource locks), only PowerShell is supported and documented, with no Linux/macOS alternatives. The use of PowerShell-centric instructions and terminology may create friction for Linux/macOS users, especially where CLI or portal options are unavailable.
Recommendations
  • Clearly indicate platform requirements for PowerShell-only operations, and provide guidance for Linux/macOS users (e.g., using PowerShell Core on Linux, or alternatives if available).
  • Where only PowerShell is supported, add explicit notes about lack of CLI/portal support and suggest workarounds or roadmap for parity.
  • Present CLI examples before or alongside PowerShell examples to avoid Windows-first bias.
  • Expand documentation to include Linux/macOS-specific instructions or troubleshooting tips for cross-platform users.
  • Consider adding a table summarizing which operations are available via Portal, PowerShell, CLI, and on which platforms.
