Windows First
Powershell Heavy
Missing Linux Example
Summary
The documentation provides both Bash and PowerShell examples for all Azure CLI commands, ensuring cross-platform coverage. However, in the 'Send requests' section, the PowerShell example is significantly more complex and detailed than the Bash example, potentially favoring Windows users. The Bash example uses standard Linux utilities (seq, xargs, curl), while the PowerShell example uses advanced PowerShell constructs (RunspacePool, Invoke-WebRequest), which may not be as familiar to Linux users. Additionally, the PowerShell tab is always present, and the instructions sometimes refer to 'command prompt' (a Windows term) when describing how to access PowerShell. There are no explicit Linux-only examples or recommendations, and the Bash examples assume a Unix-like environment but do not mention macOS. No Windows-specific tools are mentioned, but the PowerShell examples are more elaborate and may be perceived as the primary or preferred method for some steps.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent Bash examples for advanced scenarios, such as sending concurrent requests, using tools like GNU Parallel or background jobs to match the PowerShell example's concurrency.
- Clarify that Bash examples work on Linux and macOS, and mention how to install required tools if missing.
- Avoid referring to 'command prompt' when describing PowerShell usage; use 'PowerShell terminal' or clarify for cross-platform users.
- Consider adding a note about using WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) for Bash commands on Windows.
- Ensure that both Bash and PowerShell examples are equally detailed and capable, especially for concurrency and automation tasks.
