Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell examples for automation, but the PowerShell section is given as the second main automation method, and no explicit Linux shell (bash) or macOS-specific instructions are provided. PowerShell is a Windows-centric tool, and its inclusion without parity for Linux-native scripting (e.g., bash) or explicit mention of cross-platform compatibility introduces a mild Windows bias. However, the Azure CLI examples are cross-platform and shown first, and infrastructure-as-code examples (ARM, Terraform) are platform-neutral.
Recommendations
- Clarify that Azure CLI commands work on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and recommend bash/zsh for Linux/macOS users.
- Add explicit bash shell examples or notes for Linux/macOS users, especially for scripting and automation.
- Mention that PowerShell Core is available cross-platform, or provide links to Linux/macOS installation guides if PowerShell is recommended.
- Ensure troubleshooting and validation steps include Linux/macOS shell equivalents if PowerShell is used.
- Consider reordering sections so that cross-platform tools (CLI, REST, ARM, Terraform) are always presented before Windows-centric tools.
