Summary
The documentation provides examples for creating an Azure Compute Gallery using the Portal, Azure CLI, PowerShell, and REST API. While the CLI and REST examples are cross-platform, PowerShell is Windows-centric and is presented as a primary method alongside CLI and Portal. The PowerShell example is given equal prominence to CLI, but there is no mention of Linux/macOS equivalents for scripting (e.g., Bash), and PowerShell is not explicitly marked as Windows-only. Additionally, the ordering of examples sometimes places PowerShell before REST, which may subtly reinforce Windows-centric workflows.
Recommendations
  • Clearly indicate that PowerShell examples are intended for Windows users, and suggest CLI or REST for Linux/macOS users.
  • Consider providing Bash script examples for Linux/macOS users where appropriate, or clarify that Azure CLI is the recommended cross-platform tool.
  • Reorder example tabs so that CLI (cross-platform) appears before PowerShell, or group Windows-specific tooling separately.
  • Add a note at the start of the examples section explaining which tools are cross-platform and which are Windows-specific.
