Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a strong Windows/PowerShell bias. All command-line instructions for creating Azure resources (resource group, storage account, blob container, file copy) are provided exclusively as PowerShell scripts, with no equivalent Bash, Azure CLI, or Linux-native instructions. The prerequisites and workflow assume the use of PowerShell, a tool primarily associated with Windows environments, and reference Windows-centric patterns (e.g., 'Write-Host', PowerShell modules). There are no Linux shell or Azure CLI alternatives, and the documentation does not mention how to perform these steps from a Linux or cross-platform environment. This could hinder accessibility for users working on Linux or macOS systems.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent Azure CLI (az) commands for all PowerShell scripts, as Azure CLI is cross-platform and widely used on Linux and macOS.
- Explicitly mention that the steps can be performed from Linux, macOS, or Windows, and provide guidance for each platform.
- Where PowerShell is referenced, add a parallel section or code block for Bash/Azure CLI users.
- Clarify in the prerequisites that either PowerShell or Azure CLI can be used, and link to installation instructions for both.
- Ensure that all portal navigation and screenshots are not Windows-specific and clarify that the Azure portal is web-based and OS-agnostic.
- Consider including a table or toggle that lets users select their preferred environment (Windows/PowerShell or Linux/Bash/Azure CLI) for code samples.
