Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in the 'Connect to the developer portal' section, where instructions for editing the hosts file are provided exclusively for Windows (using Notepad and the Windows file path). There are no equivalent instructions for Linux or macOS users, nor is there mention of alternative editors or file locations for those platforms. Additionally, the use of PowerShell-style variable assignment and backtick line continuation in Azure CLI examples may be confusing for non-Windows users, though the commands themselves are cross-platform.
Recommendations
  • Add instructions for editing the hosts file on Linux (e.g., using sudo nano /etc/hosts) and macOS (e.g., sudo open -e /etc/hosts or sudo nano /etc/hosts).
  • Mention the location of the hosts file on Linux/macOS (/etc/hosts) and provide example commands for editing and saving the file.
  • Clarify that the Azure CLI commands can be run on any platform, and provide alternative syntax for variable assignment and line continuation for Bash/zsh (e.g., export rg="edge-rag-aks-rg" and using \ for line continuation).
  • Where PowerShell-specific instructions are given, offer Bash/zsh equivalents or note the differences.
