Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI (with Bash scripting) and PowerShell examples, but the PowerShell section is given equal prominence, and there is no explicit mention of Linux or macOS environments. The Bash scripting in the Azure CLI section assumes a Unix-like shell but does not clarify compatibility with Windows (e.g., WSL, Git Bash, or native Windows shell). The PowerShell section is implicitly Windows-centric, and there is no mention of cross-platform PowerShell Core or how to run these commands on Linux/macOS. There is also no explicit guidance for users on non-Windows platforms regarding prerequisites or shell compatibility.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly state that the Azure CLI examples require a Bash shell and provide alternatives or notes for Windows users (e.g., using WSL, Git Bash, or PowerShell equivalents).
  • Clarify that PowerShell examples can be run on PowerShell Core, which is cross-platform, and provide instructions for Linux/macOS users if any differences exist.
  • Consider adding a dedicated section or notes for Linux/macOS users to ensure parity and clarify any environment-specific requirements.
  • Where possible, provide examples that are explicitly cross-platform or indicate which platforms each example is tested on.
  • Add a table or quick reference indicating which tools/shells are supported on which operating systems.
