Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell examples for authentication, but PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) is consistently presented alongside CLI, and sometimes before or with equal prominence. The table of authentication methods lists PowerShell commands for each method, and PowerShell examples are given their own dedicated sections. However, Linux/macOS users are not blocked from completing any tasks, as Azure CLI and Docker commands are fully documented and cross-platform. There is a minor Windows-first bias in the order and prominence of PowerShell examples, but Linux parity is generally maintained.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly state that Azure CLI commands work on Linux/macOS and Windows, and that PowerShell is primarily for Windows users.
  • In example sections, present Azure CLI (cross-platform) examples before PowerShell (Windows-centric) ones.
  • Add a brief note clarifying that PowerShell examples are for users who prefer or require PowerShell, and that CLI is recommended for cross-platform workflows.
  • Consider including bash script examples for common automation scenarios, especially in sections discussing scripting.
  • Where environment variables are referenced (e.g., DOCKER_COMMAND), clarify syntax differences between Windows (set) and Linux/macOS (export).
