Summary
The documentation exhibits Windows bias in several areas. The Bash section for extracting ZIP files uses the Windows-native Expand-Archive command and Windows file paths, which are not available on Linux/macOS. The kubectl installation example uses winget, a Windows-only tool, with no Linux/macOS alternative provided. Throughout, file path examples and instructions default to Windows conventions, and Linux/macOS equivalents are missing or not mentioned. While Azure CLI and kubectl are cross-platform, the initial setup steps and examples favor Windows users.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux/macOS alternatives for extracting ZIP files (e.g., 'unzip archive.zip -d /path/to/dir').
  • Offer kubectl installation instructions for Linux/macOS (e.g., using 'curl' or package managers like 'apt', 'brew').
  • Use generic or platform-neutral file paths in examples, or show both Windows and Linux/macOS path formats.
  • Ensure that all critical steps have Linux/macOS equivalents, especially for tool installation and file operations.
  • Consider adding a platform-specific tab for Linux/macOS where needed, similar to the Bash/PowerShell split.
