Summary
The documentation provides examples for Azure Portal, Azure CLI, and PowerShell. While Azure CLI is cross-platform, the PowerShell examples and instructions are Windows-centric, including references to local file paths (e.g., 'D:\testFiles') and PowerShell-specific guides. There is no mention of Linux/macOS equivalents for file upload or shell usage, and PowerShell is presented as a primary automation option alongside CLI, which may create friction for Linux/macOS users unfamiliar with PowerShell.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Bash shell examples for common tasks such as uploading files to Azure Storage, using azcopy or Azure CLI from Bash.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI commands work on Linux/macOS and provide sample commands using Unix-style file paths (e.g., '/home/user/testFiles/textfile.csv').
  • Where PowerShell is referenced, note that PowerShell Core is available cross-platform, and provide instructions or examples for installing and using it on Linux/macOS.
  • Avoid using Windows-style file paths in generic examples, or provide both Windows and Unix-style path examples.
  • Link to cross-platform guides for Azure Cloud Shell, emphasizing its availability from any OS.
