Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and PowerShell examples for all major tasks, but PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) is given equal prominence and detailed usage. ARM template deployment instructions mention both az CLI and PowerShell, but PowerShell is referenced first in some places. There is no explicit mention of Linux/macOS-specific shell usage (e.g., Bash), nor any guidance for Linux users regarding PowerShell compatibility or alternatives. The examples do not show any Linux/macOS shell-specific nuances, and the presence of PowerShell throughout may create friction for non-Windows users.
Recommendations
  • Clarify that Azure CLI commands work natively on Linux/macOS and provide Bash-specific usage notes where relevant.
  • Add explicit Bash shell examples or notes for Linux/macOS users, especially for scripting or environment setup.
  • In ARM template deployment instructions, mention az CLI (cross-platform) before PowerShell, or provide separate sections for Linux/macOS and Windows users.
  • Add a note about PowerShell Core compatibility on Linux/macOS, or link to installation instructions for non-Windows platforms.
  • Consider including troubleshooting or environment setup guidance for Linux/macOS users.
