Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Windows-specific tools and workflows. PowerShell is featured as a primary scripting example before the cross-platform Azure CLI. There are references to the Windows implementation of SSL, and the use of Azure PowerShell is highlighted without mention of Linux-native alternatives or shell scripting. No explicit Linux or Bash examples are provided, and the documentation does not address Linux-specific considerations or tools for managing TLS settings.
Recommendations
  • Provide Bash or shell script examples alongside PowerShell, especially for common Linux scenarios.
  • Explicitly mention that Azure CLI is cross-platform and can be used on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
  • Avoid language that implies Windows is the default or primary platform (e.g., referencing the Windows SSL stack without noting Linux/OpenSSL context).
  • Include troubleshooting or configuration notes relevant to Linux environments, such as OpenSSL versions or common Linux distributions.
  • Where screenshots or UI steps are shown, clarify if there are differences for Linux users (e.g., Azure CLI installation or usage).
  • If referencing PowerShell, note that PowerShell Core is available cross-platform, and provide guidance for installing or using it on Linux.
