Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows/Azure portal bias by exclusively referencing the Azure portal UI and Microsoft Entra ID (formerly Azure Active Directory) for identity management, with no mention of Linux command-line tools, cross-platform CLI alternatives, or non-Microsoft identity providers in practical examples. There are no PowerShell-specific commands, but all workflows are described in the context of the Azure portal, which is most familiar to Windows users. There are no Linux shell/CLI examples, and no mention of using Azure CLI, REST APIs, or automation scripts that are platform-agnostic.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent Azure CLI (az) commands for all portal-based steps, as Azure CLI is cross-platform and works on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
- Include REST API examples for automation and platform neutrality.
- Mention and, where possible, provide examples for using non-Microsoft identity providers (e.g., Auth0, Okta) for OAuth 2.0, not just Microsoft Entra ID.
- Explicitly state that all steps can be performed from any OS using the Azure CLI or REST API, and provide links to relevant documentation.
- Add a section or callout for Linux/macOS users, highlighting any differences or confirming parity.
- If screenshots are used, consider including at least one from a non-Windows environment (e.g., browser on Linux/macOS) to reinforce cross-platform support.
