Summary:
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell examples for deployment, but it consistently presents PowerShell as a primary or co-equal method, which is more closely associated with Windows environments. The introductory deployment step specifically references Azure PowerShell first, and the use of PowerShell cmdlets (e.g., New-AzResourceGroupDeployment) and patterns (e.g., Read-Host, Write-Host) are Windows-centric. There is no mention of Linux-native scripting or shell environments (such as Bash), and the PowerShell examples use Windows-style prompts and conventions. Additionally, the cleanup section contains a mistake: the CLI tab uses a PowerShell command (Remove-AzResourceGroup), which could confuse Linux users.
Recommendations:
- Ensure that Azure CLI (which is cross-platform and more familiar to Linux users) is presented first in all code examples and instructions.
- Explicitly mention that both Azure CLI and PowerShell are cross-platform, but highlight that Azure CLI is often preferred in Linux/macOS environments.
- Provide Bash-native scripting examples (using export, read, etc.) for Linux users, and clarify the shell context for each example.
- Correct the cleanup section so that the CLI tab uses the correct Azure CLI command (az group delete --name ...), not a PowerShell command.
- Add a note or section on using the Azure portal and REST API for users who prefer not to use command-line tools.
- Review prompts and variable handling to ensure parity between PowerShell and Bash/CLI examples, using idiomatic syntax for each.
