Summary:
The documentation is largely cross-platform and Kubernetes-focused, but there are subtle signs of Windows bias. Windows-specific domains (e.g., login.windows.net), references to Azure PowerShell, and the use of Azure CLI (which is cross-platform but often associated with Windows environments) are present. The documentation sometimes lists Windows tools (Azure PowerShell) before Linux-native equivalents, and troubleshooting/logging examples do not explicitly address Linux-specific nuances. However, the majority of command-line examples use Azure CLI and kubectl, which are cross-platform, and there is explicit mention that the Azure Policy Add-on for Kubernetes can only be deployed to Linux node pools. There are no overtly missing Linux examples, but the documentation could do more to highlight Linux-native workflows and tools.
Recommendations:
- When listing tools or commands, always mention cross-platform or Linux-native options first (e.g., Azure CLI before Azure PowerShell).
- Where Azure PowerShell is referenced, provide equivalent Bash or shell commands for Linux users.
- Clarify that Azure CLI and kubectl commands are cross-platform and provide explicit instructions for both Windows and Linux environments where paths, environment variables, or behaviors differ.
- Avoid using Windows-specific domains or terminology unless strictly necessary; if used, clarify their relevance to all platforms.
- Add troubleshooting/logging sections that address common Linux-specific issues (e.g., permissions, file paths, environment setup).
- Explicitly mention that all examples work on Linux unless otherwise noted, and provide any necessary Linux-specific prerequisites or caveats.
