Summary
The documentation references deployment methods using PowerShell and Visual Studio, which are primarily Windows-centric tools, and lists them before mentioning more cross-platform options like ARM templates and the Azure Portal. There are no explicit Linux/macOS CLI examples or mentions of Azure CLI or Bash scripting, which are common on non-Windows platforms. This creates a subtle bias toward Windows users, though the core service itself is not Windows-only.
Recommendations
- Add explicit examples and links for deploying Cloud Services (extended support) using Azure CLI and Bash scripts, which are cross-platform.
- Clarify that ARM templates can be deployed using Azure CLI or other cross-platform tools, not just PowerShell.
- Reorder deployment method lists to start with platform-neutral options (ARM template, Azure Portal, Azure CLI) before Windows-specific tools (PowerShell, Visual Studio).
- Provide guidance or links for Linux/macOS users on how to perform common tasks (deployment, migration) using their preferred tools.
