Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias by providing only PowerShell command examples for pipeline deployment and execution, referencing Windows file paths (e.g., C:\ADF), and omitting any equivalent instructions for Linux or cross-platform environments (such as Azure CLI or Bash). There is no mention of Linux tools or shell scripting, and the workflow assumes a Windows/PowerShell context throughout.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent Azure CLI examples for all PowerShell commands, using Bash syntax and Linux file paths (e.g., /home/user/ADF).
  • Explicitly mention that the steps can be performed on Linux/macOS using Azure CLI, and provide links to relevant CLI documentation.
  • Where file paths are referenced, show both Windows and Linux path formats.
  • Consider providing a table or section comparing PowerShell and CLI/Bash approaches for common tasks.
  • Update the note and tutorial references to include Linux/macOS walkthroughs, not just PowerShell.
