Summary
The documentation generally maintains good cross-platform parity, but there are subtle signs of Windows bias. In the Docker daemon startup instructions, macOS/Windows (Docker Desktop) is mentioned before Linux, and no Linux desktop environment is referenced. The verification steps for Docker cleanup use 'ls ~/.azure/aksAgent.config' and 'docker images | grep aks-agent', which are Unix-style commands, but no PowerShell/Windows Command Prompt equivalents are provided. However, the documentation does not provide explicit PowerShell or Windows Command Prompt examples for Azure CLI commands, which are cross-platform. The overall flow and examples are CLI-centric and mostly platform-neutral, but the ordering and some phrasing may create minor friction for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • In Docker daemon startup instructions, mention Linux first or equally, and clarify that Docker Desktop is not available for Linux.
  • Provide PowerShell/Windows Command Prompt equivalents for verification commands (e.g., checking for config files and Docker images) to ensure parity for Windows users.
  • Explicitly state that all Azure CLI commands work on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and link to platform-specific installation guides for Docker and Azure CLI.
  • Where file paths are referenced (e.g., ~/.azure/aksAgent.config), clarify the Windows equivalent (e.g., %USERPROFILE%\.azure\aksAgent.config).
