Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell examples for all major steps, but the PowerShell examples are given equal prominence to CLI, and in some cases, environment variable setup for PowerShell uses Windows syntax only. There are no explicit Linux/macOS shell examples for PowerShell, and the CLI examples do not clarify Linux/macOS specifics (e.g., shell differences, proxy environment variable nuances). The documentation does not mention Linux-specific tools or patterns, and PowerShell is not natively available on most Linux/macOS systems, potentially creating friction for non-Windows users.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Linux/macOS shell examples for environment variable setup (e.g., export commands for Bash/Zsh, especially in PowerShell sections).
  • Clarify that Azure CLI commands are cross-platform and provide notes on any OS-specific differences (such as proxy configuration nuances).
  • Where PowerShell is used, mention that PowerShell Core is available on Linux/macOS, and provide equivalent Linux/macOS syntax if relevant.
  • Consider listing Azure CLI examples before PowerShell, as CLI is the default and most widely used cross-platform tool.
  • Add a short section or note on prerequisites for Linux/macOS users (e.g., installing Azure CLI, PowerShell Core).
