Summary
The documentation consistently uses PowerShell syntax for all CLI examples, references .ps1 scripts (Windows PowerShell), and does not provide Linux/macOS shell equivalents or guidance. Script tooling is Windows-centric, and there is no mention of Bash, shell, or cross-platform alternatives. This creates friction for Linux/macOS users who may not use PowerShell or .ps1 scripts.
Recommendations
  • Provide CLI examples using Bash/sh syntax alongside PowerShell, especially for az CLI commands.
  • Offer Linux/macOS-compatible versions of deployment scripts (e.g., bulk_deployment.sh) and document their usage.
  • Clarify whether .ps1 scripts can be run with PowerShell Core on Linux/macOS, or provide native shell alternatives.
  • Explicitly state cross-platform compatibility for all commands and scripts.
  • List Linux/macOS instructions and examples before or alongside Windows/PowerShell ones, not after.
