Summary
The documentation exhibits a Windows bias by recommending Visual Studio Code (a Microsoft tool commonly associated with Windows) as the terminal environment, and by not mentioning or providing examples for Linux/macOS terminal usage. The prerequisites and instructions assume a Windows-centric workflow, with no explicit guidance for Linux users. There are no references to Linux-specific tools, shells, or line continuation conventions, and no mention of alternative editors or environments. The documentation does not address potential differences in command syntax or environment setup for Linux/macOS users.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly mention that Azure CLI works on Windows, Linux, and macOS, and provide links to platform-specific installation instructions.
  • In the prerequisites, suggest alternative terminal environments and editors (e.g., GNOME Terminal, Terminal.app, nano, vim) alongside Visual Studio Code.
  • Note that line continuation with backslash (\) works in Bash (Linux/macOS) but not in Windows CMD; clarify for PowerShell users if needed.
  • Add a section or callout for Linux/macOS users, highlighting any differences in command usage or environment setup.
  • Ensure that all instructions and examples are tested and applicable on Linux/macOS, and explicitly state this in the documentation.
