Summary
The documentation provides code examples for generating SAS tokens in multiple languages, including PowerShell and Bash. However, PowerShell is presented as a distinct example, and Windows-centric tools (PowerShell, .NET, C#) are referenced before Linux equivalents (Bash). The Bash example is present, but appears after PowerShell, which may suggest a Windows-first approach. There is no mention of Linux-specific tools or patterns outside the Bash example, and disabling SAS authentication is described only via Azure Portal and ARM templates, which are cross-platform.
Recommendations
- Present Bash/Linux examples before or alongside PowerShell examples to avoid Windows-first ordering.
- Explicitly mention that Bash examples are suitable for Linux/macOS users and PowerShell for Windows users.
- Include references to Linux/macOS tools (e.g., curl, openssl, jq) in context, and clarify installation requirements.
- Add a note about cross-platform support for SDKs and authentication methods.
- Where possible, provide parity in step-by-step instructions for both Windows (PowerShell) and Linux/macOS (Bash/CLI).
