Summary
The documentation shows a mild Windows bias in the section on setting environment variables: it presents the Windows PowerShell example first and does not provide a Linux/macOS equivalent for referencing environment variables (e.g., $resourceGroup vs $env:ARC_RG). The rest of the guide uses Azure CLI and Bash-style syntax, which is cross-platform, but the initial environment variable reference may confuse Linux/macOS users.
Recommendations
  • Provide both Windows PowerShell and Linux/macOS Bash examples for setting and referencing environment variables, and present them side-by-side or clearly labeled.
  • When referencing environment variables, show both $env:VAR (PowerShell) and $VAR (Bash) usages.
  • Consider presenting Bash/Linux examples first or equally with Windows to avoid implicit prioritization.
  • Add a note clarifying that Azure CLI commands and Bash syntax work on Windows (with WSL or Git Bash), macOS, and Linux.
