Summary:
The documentation is heavily focused on PowerShell and its modules (PSReadLine, Az.Tools.Predictor), with all examples and instructions provided exclusively in PowerShell syntax. There is no mention of Bash or Linux shell equivalents, nor are alternative tools or predictive features for non-PowerShell environments discussed. The guidance assumes the user is operating within a PowerShell-centric workflow, which, while available in Azure Cloud Shell, does not address users who prefer or require Bash or other Unix shells.
Recommendations:
- Add equivalent examples and instructions for Bash users in Azure Cloud Shell, such as how to enable or configure command prediction features (e.g., bash-completion, fish shell suggestions, or other relevant tools).
- Explicitly mention the availability (or lack) of predictive IntelliSense features in Bash or other shells within Cloud Shell, and provide links or references to documentation for those environments.
- Balance the documentation structure so that both PowerShell and Bash/Linux users can easily find relevant information, possibly by splitting sections or providing parallel instructions.
- If predictive features are not available in Bash, state this clearly and suggest any workarounds or alternative productivity tools for Linux shell users.
