Summary:
The documentation provides examples for Azure CLI, Azure PowerShell, and the Azure Portal for each scenario. Azure PowerShell is a Windows-centric tool, and its inclusion alongside Azure CLI (which is cross-platform) is standard for Microsoft docs. However, there are no explicit Linux shell (bash) examples, and PowerShell is always given as a primary automation example. There are no references to Linux-specific tools or shell scripting, and PowerShell is presented on equal footing with CLI, which may suggest a Windows bias. Additionally, PowerShell examples are always present, but there are no bash or Linux-native command examples.
Recommendations:
- Add explicit bash or shell script examples for each scenario to demonstrate Linux parity.
- Clarify in the documentation that Azure CLI commands work identically on Windows, Linux, and macOS, and provide sample shell invocations (e.g., bash, zsh).
- Consider including notes or tabs for Linux users, such as 'Bash (Linux/macOS)' alongside 'Azure CLI' and 'Azure PowerShell'.
- If PowerShell is included, clarify that PowerShell Core is cross-platform, or otherwise indicate when a command is Windows-only.
- Highlight any differences or prerequisites for running these commands on Linux (e.g., installation steps for Azure CLI or PowerShell Core on Linux).
