Summary

The documentation page demonstrates a Windows/PowerShell bias by providing all deployment and upload examples using PowerShell commands, referencing Windows-style file paths and drive letters, and omitting equivalent Linux shell or Bash examples for local operations. While the container instances themselves run Linux, and the ARM templates use Linux containers, the instructions for interacting with Azure resources from the user's local machine are almost exclusively Windows/PowerShell-centric. There is minimal guidance for users on Linux or macOS systems, particularly for uploading files or running Docker containers with Unix-style paths.

Recommendations

Provide Bash/Azure CLI examples for all PowerShell scripts shown, especially for uploading files to Azure Storage and deploying ARM templates.
Include Linux/macOS-specific instructions for Docker volume mounting, using forward slashes and typical Unix paths (e.g., /home/user/docker:/data).
When referencing file paths or drive letters, clarify the syntax for both Windows and Unix-like systems.
Where PowerShell is used for local scripting, add equivalent Bash scripts or Azure CLI commands to ensure parity.
Explicitly state that the instructions apply to both Windows and Linux/macOS, and highlight any OS-specific considerations.
Add screenshots or terminal output examples from Linux/macOS environments where appropriate.
