Summary
The documentation references both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell for authentication, but clarifies that only Azure CLI is supported for Terraform authentication. However, Azure PowerShell is mentioned first in several places, and the 'Next steps' section lists PowerShell before CLI and REST API, suggesting a Windows-centric ordering. There are no explicit Linux/macOS examples, nor are Linux-specific tools or shell commands referenced. The documentation is generally cross-platform due to the use of Terraform and Azure CLI, but the ordering and emphasis show a mild Windows bias.
Recommendations
  • List Azure CLI before Azure PowerShell when describing authentication and management options, as CLI is cross-platform.
  • Explicitly mention that all commands (terraform, Azure CLI) work on Linux/macOS and Windows.
  • Add a note or section confirming Linux/macOS compatibility and provide links to installation guides for those platforms.
  • When listing management options (e.g., in 'Next steps'), alternate or randomize the order of PowerShell and CLI, or group cross-platform tools together.
