Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Azure PowerShell (commonly used on Windows) alongside Azure CLI, and by providing detailed step-by-step instructions and screenshots for the Azure Portal (which is OS-agnostic but often illustrated with Windows UI). There are no explicit Linux-specific instructions, nor are there examples showing Linux shell commands or considerations for Linux users. The PowerShell example is given equal prominence to the Azure CLI, but there are no Bash or Linux-native command examples, and no mention of Linux tools or environments.
Recommendations:
- Add explicit Linux/Bash shell command examples for all CLI instructions, including any differences in quoting, line continuation, or environment setup.
- Clarify that Azure CLI commands work cross-platform and, where appropriate, show screenshots or terminal output from a Linux shell.
- If PowerShell is mentioned, also mention Bash or other common Linux shells to ensure parity.
- Include notes or tips for Linux users, such as package installation commands for Azure CLI or PowerShell on Linux.
- Review screenshots and UI instructions to ensure they are not Windows-specific, or add clarifying notes for Linux/macOS users if UI elements differ.

### Enable managed identity using Azure PowerShell
You can use Azure PowerShell for creating a new cache with managed identity by using [New-AzRedisCache](/powershell/module/az.rediscache/new-azrediscache). You can update an existing cache to use managed identity by using [Set-AzRedisCache](/powershell/module/az.rediscache/set-azrediscache).
For example, to update a cache to use system-managed identity, use the following Azure PowerShell command:
