Summary
The documentation exclusively uses PowerShell scripts and Azure PowerShell tasks for all examples, with no mention of Bash, Azure CLI, or Linux-native scripting alternatives. All code samples, instructions, and YAML pipeline tasks are PowerShell-centric, and there is no guidance for users working in Linux or cross-platform environments.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent examples using Azure CLI and Bash scripts for Linux users.
  • Explicitly mention that PowerShell Core is cross-platform, but clarify any Windows-specific limitations or requirements.
  • Include YAML pipeline tasks using AzureCLI@2 and Bash@3 for parity with AzurePowerShell@5 examples.
  • Add a section discussing cross-platform considerations and how to adapt the scripts for Linux/macOS agents.
  • Reference official documentation for installing and using Azure CLI in addition to Azure PowerShell.
