Summary
The documentation exhibits a moderate Windows bias. PowerShell is presented as a primary scripting interface alongside the Azure Portal and Azure CLI, with explicit PowerShell command examples and references. In several sections, PowerShell is listed before Azure CLI, and the CLI tab itself incorrectly instructs users to 'Run the following PowerShell command' instead of 'Azure CLI command.' No Linux-specific shell or scripting examples (such as Bash) are provided, and there is no mention of Linux tools or environments. The documentation assumes familiarity with PowerShell and Windows-centric tooling, which may disadvantage Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Correct the Azure CLI sections to refer to 'Azure CLI command' instead of 'PowerShell command.'
  • Add Bash shell examples for Azure CLI commands, demonstrating usage in a typical Linux or macOS terminal.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI commands can be run on Windows, Linux, and macOS, and provide any OS-specific notes if needed (e.g., line continuation differences).
  • Where PowerShell is mentioned, consider adding a note or tab for Bash or sh equivalents, especially for scripting scenarios.
  • Review the order of tabs and examples; consider listing Azure CLI (cross-platform) before PowerShell (Windows-centric) to reduce perceived Windows-first bias.
  • Audit for any other Windows-centric terminology or assumptions, and ensure parity in guidance for Linux users.
