Summary
The documentation provides parallel examples for Azure portal, Azure CLI, and Azure PowerShell throughout, but PowerShell is featured as a primary automation tool, which is most commonly used on Windows. PowerShell examples are given equal prominence to Azure CLI, but there is no mention of Bash, shell scripting, or Linux/macOS-specific workflows. The use of PowerShell and references to cmdlets may create friction for Linux/macOS users, as PowerShell is less commonly installed or used on those platforms. Additionally, the documentation does not clarify that Azure CLI is cross-platform and may be preferred on Linux/macOS.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly state that Azure CLI is cross-platform and works natively on Linux/macOS.
  • Add Bash or shell scripting examples where appropriate, especially for automation tasks.
  • Clarify that PowerShell is available on Linux/macOS, but Azure CLI may be more familiar to non-Windows users.
  • Consider listing Azure CLI examples before PowerShell to reflect its broader cross-platform usage.
  • Include notes or links for installing PowerShell on Linux/macOS if PowerShell examples are retained.
