Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell examples for creating and updating scale sets with Availability Zones. However, PowerShell examples are given equal prominence to CLI examples, and in some sections (such as updating scale sets), the PowerShell example is shown before the REST API example. There is a slight 'windows_first' bias in the ordering of example tabs and the inclusion of PowerShell, which is primarily a Windows tool, but Linux parity is generally maintained through CLI and ARM template instructions.
Recommendations
- Ensure that Azure CLI examples are shown before PowerShell examples, as CLI is cross-platform and more commonly used on Linux/macOS.
- Explicitly mention that Azure CLI commands work on Linux/macOS and Windows, while PowerShell is primarily for Windows (with limited cross-platform support).
- Consider adding bash shell script examples for common operations, or clarify that Azure CLI is the recommended approach for Linux/macOS users.
- Where PowerShell is used, offer a note about Linux alternatives or cross-platform PowerShell Core usage.
