Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a significant Windows/Powershell bias. All imperative command-line examples for deploying templates, managing identities, and setting access policies use Azure PowerShell cmdlets, with no Bash, Linux shell, or cross-platform Azure CLI equivalents provided for these critical steps. While some resource creation steps reference Azure CLI, all step-by-step automation and scripting guidance defaults to PowerShell. This may hinder Linux or macOS users, who are more likely to use Bash and Azure CLI. Additionally, PowerShell is mentioned before CLI in several places, and no Linux-specific instructions or screenshots are present.
Recommendations:
- Provide Azure CLI equivalents for all PowerShell commands, especially for template deployments, identity management, and key vault access policy configuration.
- Include Bash shell command examples alongside PowerShell, or use CLI as the primary example for cross-platform parity.
- When referencing both PowerShell and CLI, present CLI first or side-by-side to avoid the impression of Windows-first bias.
- Add a note or section clarifying that all steps can be performed on Linux/macOS using Azure CLI, and link to relevant CLI documentation.
- Where screenshots are used, ensure they are not Windows-specific or supplement with cross-platform visuals.
- Audit for any references to Windows-only tools or patterns and replace with cross-platform alternatives where possible.
