Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a clear Windows bias by exclusively using Azure PowerShell for deployment instructions, referencing Windows-style file paths (e.g., C:\MyTemplates\azuredeploy.json), and omitting any CLI or Bash/Linux-based examples. There is no mention of Azure CLI, Bash, or cross-platform alternatives, and the only automation example provided is specific to Windows environments.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent Azure CLI examples for deploying ARM templates, which are cross-platform and widely used on Linux and macOS.
  • Include Bash shell commands and use POSIX-style file paths (e.g., ~/MyTemplates/azuredeploy.json) alongside Windows paths.
  • Explicitly mention that the steps can be performed on any OS, and provide links to both PowerShell and CLI documentation.
  • Reorder or parallelize instructions so that Windows and Linux/macOS users see their options presented equally, rather than Windows-first.
  • Where possible, use neutral language and tooling (e.g., 'use your preferred shell or CLI') to avoid implying Windows is the default or only supported environment.
