Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a bias toward Windows and Azure-centric tooling. All instructions are provided exclusively for the Azure Portal (a web GUI), Azure CLI, and Azure Key Vault, with no mention of Linux-native tools, command-line alternatives, or cross-platform scripting. There are no examples or guidance for performing catalog management tasks using Linux shells, open-source tools, or non-Microsoft platforms. The documentation assumes use of the Azure Portal and does not address parity for Linux users or those preferring CLI or automation outside of Azure's ecosystem.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent CLI-based instructions using cross-platform tools such as Azure CLI and PowerShell Core (which runs on Linux and macOS), and ensure these are presented alongside or before GUI instructions.
- Include Linux shell (bash) examples for tasks such as managing managed identities, configuring Key Vault, and adding catalogs, to support automation and scripting on Linux systems.
- Reference open-source alternatives or compatible tools where possible (e.g., using REST API calls via curl or httpie for catalog operations).
- Explicitly state platform requirements and clarify that all steps can be performed from Linux, macOS, or Windows, if true. If not, provide workarounds or note limitations.
- Add a section or callouts for Linux users, highlighting any differences or additional steps required when using non-Windows environments.
