Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a notable Windows bias, especially in the ExpressRoute Fast Path setup section. All command-line examples use Azure PowerShell cmdlets, with no Azure CLI or Bash equivalents provided. The variable declarations and connection setup steps are written in PowerShell syntax, which is native to Windows and less commonly used on Linux/macOS. There is no mention of Linux/macOS-specific tools or workflows, and the PowerShell examples are presented as the only option, creating friction for non-Windows users.
Recommendations
  • Provide Azure CLI (az) command equivalents for all PowerShell cmdlet examples, as Azure CLI is cross-platform and preferred by many Linux/macOS users.
  • Explicitly mention that PowerShell Core is available on Linux/macOS, and provide installation guidance if PowerShell must be used.
  • Where possible, include Bash script snippets or references to Linux-native tools for network and VM configuration.
  • Reorder examples to present cross-platform (Azure CLI) options first, or side-by-side with PowerShell.
