Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and PowerShell examples for resource creation, but PowerShell is given equal prominence and detail, and there is no mention of Linux/macOS-specific shell usage or guidance. The use of PowerShell and references to Windows-centric tools (such as Install-Module and New-Az* cmdlets) may create friction for Linux/macOS users. The Azure Cloud Shell is mentioned, which is cross-platform, but the explicit PowerShell instructions and lack of Bash-specific examples or notes indicate a mild Windows bias.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Bash/Linux/macOS shell examples and instructions alongside PowerShell, especially for resource creation and management.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI commands work natively on Linux/macOS and in Bash, and provide guidance for users on those platforms.
  • Reorder examples to show Azure CLI (cross-platform) first, and PowerShell second, or clearly indicate platform applicability.
  • Include notes or links for installing Azure CLI on Linux/macOS, and avoid assuming PowerShell is the default shell.
  • Where PowerShell-specific steps are shown, provide equivalent Bash/CLI steps for parity.
