powershell_heavy
Summary:
The documentation presents PowerShell instructions and context before Azure CLI, and provides more detailed setup and troubleshooting guidance for PowerShell users. This ordering and emphasis may favor Windows users, as PowerShell is more commonly associated with Windows environments, even though it is now cross-platform. There is also more detail about PowerShell module installation and versioning than for the Azure CLI, which is more commonly used on Linux.
Recommendations:
- Present Azure CLI instructions before or alongside PowerShell instructions, as the CLI is cross-platform and widely used on Linux.
- Provide equal detail for Azure CLI setup, including troubleshooting and version checks, similar to what is given for PowerShell.
- Explicitly mention that both PowerShell and Azure CLI are available on Windows, Linux, and macOS, and provide links to installation guides for all platforms.
- Include example shell commands for both Bash (Linux/macOS) and PowerShell where appropriate, or clarify that the examples work cross-platform.
- Avoid assuming PowerShell is the default or primary scripting environment; instead, present both options neutrally.
