Summary
The documentation consistently uses Windows-style file paths (e.g., C:\Templates\...) in all code examples, including Azure CLI, PowerShell, and ARM templates. There are no Linux/macOS path examples (e.g., /home/user/Templates/...), nor any mention of Linux/macOS-specific considerations. This may cause confusion or friction for non-Windows users, especially when copying and pasting commands. Additionally, the documentation references PowerShell and Azure CLI, but does not provide any shell-specific notes for Bash or zsh users.
Recommendations
  • Provide both Windows and Linux/macOS file path examples in all code blocks (e.g., C:\Templates\createStorageV1.json and ~/Templates/createStorageV1.json).
  • Add notes clarifying that file paths should be adapted to the user's operating system.
  • Explicitly mention that Azure CLI commands work cross-platform and provide shell-specific variable assignment examples (e.g., export id=... for Bash/zsh).
  • Where PowerShell is referenced, clarify that Azure PowerShell is available on Linux/macOS, and provide any OS-specific installation or usage notes.
  • Avoid assuming a Windows environment in text and screenshots, or provide alternatives for Linux/macOS users.
