Summary
The documentation provides both Windows and Linux examples for key operations (such as log locations and agent commands), but there is a mild Windows bias. PowerShell examples are consistently given alongside Azure CLI, and in some sections, Windows-specific instructions or notes (e.g., PowerShell command syntax, log file locations) are presented first or in more detail. The CLI examples use backticks for line continuation, which is a Windows PowerShell convention, potentially confusing for Linux/macOS users. References to downloading Windows installation packages are present, but Linux equivalents are also mentioned.
Recommendations
  • Ensure CLI examples use standard Bash line continuation (\) for Linux/macOS, or clarify which shell is assumed.
  • Alternate the order of Windows and Linux instructions/examples to avoid always presenting Windows first.
  • Explicitly mention Linux/macOS support in introductory sections to reinforce parity.
  • Where PowerShell is referenced, provide Bash equivalents or clarify that PowerShell is cross-platform.
  • Add notes about differences in CLI usage between Windows (PowerShell) and Linux/macOS (Bash).
