Summary:
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell examples for finding outbound IP addresses, but PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) is given equal prominence to CLI, and in some sections, PowerShell is shown immediately after CLI without mention of Bash or Linux-native tools. There are no Linux-specific or Bash-native command examples (e.g., using curl, jq, or REST API with bash), and the only non-Azure CLI command shown is nslookup, which is cross-platform but not explicitly called out as such. Outbound IPv6 support is noted as available only for Windows apps, but this is a platform limitation, not a documentation bias. Overall, the documentation leans toward Windows/PowerShell tooling and does not provide Linux-native or Bash-centric examples, which may disadvantage Linux users.
Recommendations:
- Add explicit Bash/Linux-native command examples (e.g., using curl with Azure REST API, jq for parsing JSON, etc.) alongside Azure CLI and PowerShell.
- Clearly indicate which commands are cross-platform and which are Windows-specific.
- When listing command-line examples, alternate the order or provide tabs for 'Windows (PowerShell)', 'Linux/macOS (Bash/CLI)', and 'Azure CLI' to ensure parity.
- Where PowerShell is shown, provide equivalent Bash or shell script snippets for common tasks.
- Explicitly mention that Azure CLI is cross-platform and can be used on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
- For sections that only show PowerShell, add a note or link to Linux/Bash alternatives.
