Summary

The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing Azure PowerShell and Azure CLI as the primary authentication methods, listing Azure PowerShell before other options, and not providing any Linux- or macOS-specific guidance or examples. There are no examples or notes about using Bicep or related tools on Linux, nor is there mention of cross-platform differences or considerations.

Recommendations

Include explicit examples and notes for Linux and macOS users, such as how to authenticate using Azure CLI on those platforms.
Avoid listing Azure PowerShell before Azure CLI or at least clarify that both are cross-platform, but PowerShell is more Windows-centric.
Mention that Azure CLI is fully supported on Linux and macOS, and provide links or notes for installing and using it on those systems.
Add a section or callout about cross-platform compatibility, especially for authentication and environment setup.
Where credential types are listed, clarify which are available or recommended for Linux/macOS users (e.g., Azure CLI, Environment, Managed Identity).
