Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a mild Windows bias. File path examples use Windows-style paths (e.g., c:\jsontemplates) without providing Linux equivalents. In sections discussing local cache locations, the Windows path is listed first, and the Linux/Mac examples are less detailed. The documentation references Azure PowerShell and Windows-specific patterns (such as named pipes with Windows syntax) before or instead of Linux alternatives. There are no explicit Linux shell (bash) command examples, and Linux file path conventions are not shown alongside Windows ones.
Recommendations
  • For every file path example using Windows-style paths (e.g., c:\jsontemplates), provide a Linux/Mac equivalent (e.g., /home/user/jsontemplates) alongside or immediately after.
  • When listing cache or configuration file locations, present all platforms with equal detail and avoid always listing Windows first.
  • Where named pipes or other OS-specific features are discussed, present Linux/OSX and Windows examples together, and avoid putting Windows first.
  • Add bash/zsh shell command examples where only Azure CLI or PowerShell examples are shown, especially for common tasks.
  • Ensure that references to Azure PowerShell are balanced with references to bash or other cross-platform tools where possible.
