Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and PowerShell examples for all major operations, maintaining parity in most areas. However, the PowerShell tab recommends and demonstrates the use of ARMClient, a Windows-centric tool (armclient.exe), without mentioning Linux/macOS alternatives or ARMClient's cross-platform capabilities. There are no examples using Linux-native tools like curl, httpie, or bash scripting for REST calls, and the documentation does not clarify whether ARMClient works on Linux/macOS. This creates friction for non-Windows users who prefer or require native tooling.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly state whether ARMClient is cross-platform, and provide installation instructions for Linux/macOS if supported.
  • Add Linux/macOS examples using curl or httpie for REST API calls, especially in sections where ARMClient is used.
  • Mention alternative tools for REST operations that are available on Linux/macOS.
  • Clarify that PowerShell Core (v7+) is cross-platform, and provide guidance for Linux/macOS users where relevant.
