Summary
The documentation is focused on Linux VMs and provides extensive Azure CLI and PowerShell examples for managing Run Commands. However, PowerShell examples are given equal or greater prominence than Azure CLI, despite PowerShell being a Windows-centric tool. Several notes and examples reference Windows-specific tools (e.g., New-AzStorageBlobSASToken, PowerShell script URIs, Windows parameter handling), and in some cases, Windows terminology or patterns are described before their Linux equivalents. REST API and ARM template examples use PowerShell script syntax (Write-Host, .ps1) even in Linux contexts, and some explanations default to Windows behaviors before clarifying Linux differences.
Recommendations
  • Prioritize Azure CLI examples and explanations, as CLI is more native to Linux environments.
  • Where PowerShell is used, clarify its cross-platform support and provide Bash or shell script alternatives.
  • In REST and ARM template examples, use Linux shell script syntax (e.g., 'echo Hello World!' or '.sh' files) instead of PowerShell (.ps1) for Linux VM scenarios.
  • When discussing parameter handling, describe Linux behaviors first, then Windows, or clearly separate the two.
  • Reduce references to Windows-specific tools (e.g., New-AzStorageBlobSASToken) or provide Linux-native alternatives (such as Azure CLI commands for generating SAS tokens).
  • Ensure all examples and notes are tailored for Linux users, especially in sections where Windows terminology or tools are used.
