Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: command examples use PowerShell-style variable assignment and line continuation (backticks), which are specific to Windows/PowerShell and not compatible with Bash on Linux/macOS. The instructions for editing the hosts file are exclusively for Windows (using Notepad and the Windows file path), with no mention of how to perform the equivalent task on Linux or macOS. Additionally, Windows-specific steps (such as 'Switch to PowerShell' in Azure Cloud Shell) are mentioned before any Linux alternatives, and there are no Linux/macOS-specific examples or guidance.
Recommendations
- Provide Bash-compatible command examples alongside PowerShell, using Bash variable assignment and line continuation (\) for Linux/macOS users.
- Include instructions for editing the hosts file on Linux (e.g., using sudo nano /etc/hosts) and macOS.
- When referencing Azure Cloud Shell, clarify how to use Bash and provide examples for both shells.
- Avoid using Windows-specific terminology or paths exclusively; always mention the Linux/macOS equivalents.
- Consider a tabbed or side-by-side format for command examples, allowing users to select their OS/shell.
