Powershell Heavy Windows First Missing Linux Example
Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively using PowerShell syntax for all Azure CLI and scripting examples, stating 'we're using PowerShell' without providing Bash or Linux shell equivalents. There are no Linux/macOS-specific instructions or examples, and variable assignment and command usage are tailored to PowerShell users. This may hinder accessibility for users on Linux or macOS platforms who use Bash or other shells.
Recommendations
  • Provide parallel Bash/Linux shell examples for all Azure CLI commands and scripting steps, especially for variable assignment and command chaining.
  • Explicitly mention that Azure CLI works cross-platform and that users can use Bash, zsh, or other shells on Linux/macOS.
  • Where PowerShell-specific syntax is used (e.g., variable assignment with $Var = ...), show the Bash equivalent (e.g., VAR=...) side-by-side.
  • In the prerequisites or opening sections, clarify that the tutorial is cross-platform and provide guidance for both Windows (PowerShell) and Linux/macOS (Bash) users.
  • For clean-up and other scripting sections, ensure Bash alternatives are present and tested.

Recommendations
  • Provide all Azure CLI examples in both PowerShell and Bash syntax, or use Bash as the default since Azure CLI is cross-platform.
  • Avoid PowerShell-specific variable assignment (e.g., $Variable = ...) in favor of Bash-compatible syntax (e.g., VARIABLE=...).
  • Clarify that the tutorial works on any OS with Azure CLI, and offer guidance for both Windows (PowerShell) and Linux/macOS (Bash) users.
  • Include a note or tabbed code blocks to switch between PowerShell and Bash examples.
  • Ensure clean-up and resource management commands are also shown in Bash.

Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing 'Windows Plan' specifically when choosing a plan type, without mentioning Linux or cross-platform options. There are no command-line examples, but the only plan type explicitly named is Windows. No Linux-specific instructions, screenshots, or parity notes are provided, and there is no mention of Linux hosting or deployment scenarios. The documentation assumes a GUI (Azure Portal) workflow, which is platform-agnostic, but the explicit mention of 'Windows Plan' and absence of Linux alternatives or clarifications creates a subtle bias.
Recommendations
  • When specifying plan types, mention both Windows and Linux hosting options if available, or clarify if only Windows is supported.
  • If Logic Apps can be hosted on Linux (e.g., via Docker containers or App Service Linux plans), provide equivalent instructions or notes.
  • Avoid using 'Windows Plan' as a default term; use 'App Service Plan' or specify both Windows and Linux variants.
  • Add a note or section clarifying platform compatibility for Logic Apps, especially for users deploying from non-Windows environments.
  • If command-line or scripting options are relevant (e.g., Azure CLI, Bicep, ARM templates), provide examples that work cross-platform.
