Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) in both instructions and tooling tables, frequently referencing PowerShell cmdlets before or instead of cross-platform alternatives. The Azure portal (GUI) and PowerShell are emphasized for key operations, with the Azure CLI (which is more cross-platform) only mentioned later and with less detail. There are no explicit Linux/macOS-specific instructions or examples, and no mention of platform-specific considerations for non-Windows users.
Recommendations
  • Ensure all PowerShell examples are paired with equivalent Azure CLI examples, and present both side-by-side or in parallel sections.
  • Explicitly state that Azure CLI is cross-platform and provide installation and usage notes for Linux/macOS users.
  • Where GUI instructions are given, clarify that the Azure portal is accessible from any OS with a modern browser.
  • Review all tooling tables to include and highlight cross-platform tools (e.g., Azure CLI, PP CLI) equally with PowerShell.
  • Add a section or notes addressing any platform-specific differences or limitations for Linux/macOS users.
  • Avoid assuming PowerShell is the default scripting environment; clarify when a step is Windows-specific or provide alternatives.
