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, and the PowerShell section appears before the ARM template section. There is a slight 'windows_first' bias, as PowerShell is a Windows-centric tool, and its inclusion alongside CLI without mention of Bash or Linux-specific commands may create friction for Linux/macOS users. However, the CLI examples are present and fully functional for Linux/macOS users, and ARM templates are platform-agnostic.
Recommendations
- Ensure Azure CLI examples are always shown before PowerShell, as CLI is cross-platform.
- Explicitly mention that Azure CLI commands work on Linux, macOS, and Windows, while PowerShell is primarily for Windows users.
- Consider adding Bash shell script examples for Linux users, or clarifying that Azure CLI is the recommended tool for Linux/macOS.
- In the 'Use Azure Resource Manager templates' section, clarify that both Linux and Windows images are supported, and link to both quick-create-template-linux.md and quick-create-template-windows.md equally.
