Summary

The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by consistently referencing Windows PowerShell as the default local shell for Azure CLI and PowerShell examples, using Windows file paths (e.g., C:\demo-file.txt), and omitting explicit Linux/macOS shell or file path examples. The instructions for running CLI commands locally mention Windows PowerShell but not Bash or other Unix shells, and there are no Linux-specific notes or parity in examples.

Recommendations

When referencing local command consoles for Azure CLI, mention Bash (Linux/macOS) alongside Windows PowerShell. For example: 'open a command console such as Bash or Windows PowerShell.'
Provide file path examples in both Windows (C:\demo-file.txt) and Linux/macOS (/home/user/demo-file.txt) formats for all relevant commands.
Add explicit notes or examples for running commands in Bash or other Unix shells, especially where quoting or path syntax may differ.
Avoid defaulting to Windows terminology (e.g., 'Windows PowerShell') when instructions are cross-platform; use neutral terms like 'command prompt' or 'terminal.'
Where possible, include screenshots or references to Linux/macOS environments in addition to Windows.
Audit for other subtle Windows-centric language or assumptions and revise for cross-platform inclusivity.
