Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by providing detailed PowerShell examples and command breakdowns, while the Azure CLI (cross-platform) section is less detailed and only provides a single command. PowerShell is presented before Azure CLI, and the documentation references Windows-centric tools and patterns (PowerShell cmdlets) without offering equivalent Linux shell or scripting examples. There are no explicit Linux/Unix shell examples or references to Linux-specific workflows.
Recommendations
- Provide Bash or shell script examples alongside PowerShell, especially for tasks like preparing the JSON policy file and invoking the Azure CLI.
- Reorder the command-line sections so that Azure CLI (cross-platform) appears before PowerShell, or present both in parallel tabs.
- Expand the Azure CLI section to include more detailed, step-by-step instructions, similar to the PowerShell section (e.g., how to construct the JSON policy, how to edit it, and how to validate the policy).
- Explicitly mention that Azure CLI commands can be run on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and provide any OS-specific notes if needed.
- Where possible, avoid Windows-specific terminology or tools unless there is no cross-platform equivalent, and always provide parity in examples.
