Summary
The documentation provides both Windows and Linux guidance, but there is a subtle Windows bias. PowerShell examples are given equal prominence to Azure CLI, but PowerShell is more Windows-centric. In some sections, PowerShell is presented as a primary method alongside CLI, while Linux-specific instructions are separated and sometimes less detailed. For example, setting the runtime version via PowerShell is described, but there is no equivalent Bash or Linux shell example. Additionally, some instructions (like setting linuxFxVersion) note that PowerShell and portal are not supported, but do not offer Linux-native alternatives beyond Azure CLI.
Recommendations
  • Provide Bash or Linux shell script equivalents for all PowerShell examples, especially for Linux users who may not use PowerShell.
  • When listing methods (portal, CLI, PowerShell), avoid always listing PowerShell before Linux-native options.
  • Clarify in each section which methods are cross-platform and which are Windows-specific.
  • Where PowerShell is used, explicitly note its platform limitations and suggest alternatives for Linux/macOS users.
  • Consider including a table or matrix summarizing which management tools are available for each platform.
