Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates bias towards Windows environments by providing only .NET (C#) code samples, referencing Windows-centric libraries (Azure.Messaging.ServiceBus, Azure.Identity), and omitting equivalent Linux or cross-platform code examples (such as Python, Java, or Node.js). The registration and authentication steps are described using the Azure portal UI, which is platform-agnostic, but the only code sample is for .NET, which is most commonly associated with Windows. Additionally, in the 'Next steps' section, PowerShell is mentioned before Azure CLI, which is more commonly used on Linux/macOS.
Recommendations:
- Add code samples for other popular cross-platform languages such as Python (using azure-identity and azure-servicebus), Java, and Node.js to demonstrate authentication from Linux or macOS environments.
- Include explicit instructions or examples for using Azure CLI (which is cross-platform) to perform authentication and role assignments, and consider listing Azure CLI before PowerShell in the 'Next steps' section.
- Mention that the .NET libraries are cross-platform, but also provide links or references to SDKs and samples for other languages.
- If possible, include a table or section comparing authentication approaches across different operating systems and programming languages.
- Ensure that screenshots and UI steps are clearly marked as platform-agnostic, and provide command-line alternatives for users who prefer not to use the Azure portal.
