Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing PowerShell as the primary scripting tool for deploying VMs with ARM templates, without mentioning or providing equivalent examples for Linux users (e.g., Azure CLI, Bash). No Linux-specific tools, commands, or patterns are discussed, and the only automation example is PowerShell-centric. This may disadvantage users working from Linux or cross-platform environments.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent Azure CLI (az) and/or Bash examples alongside PowerShell instructions for deploying VMs with ARM templates.
  • Explicitly mention that ARM template deployments can be performed from Linux, macOS, and Windows, and provide links to cross-platform tooling.
  • Where PowerShell is referenced, clarify that it is one of several supported automation options, and provide parity in troubleshooting steps for Linux-based workflows.
  • Consider including a section or callout for Linux/macOS users, highlighting any differences or additional considerations.
