Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and PowerShell examples for all disk types and operations, but PowerShell examples are given equal prominence and detail as CLI, and in some cases, PowerShell is listed first (e.g., in 'Share an existing disk' and 'Using Azure shared disks with your VMs'). PowerShell is a Windows-centric tool, and its heavy usage and occasional ordering before CLI may create friction for Linux/macOS users. However, Azure CLI examples are present for all operations, and no critical steps are Windows-only.
Recommendations
  • Ensure Azure CLI examples are always listed before PowerShell, as CLI is cross-platform.
  • Explicitly state that all CLI commands work on Linux/macOS and Windows.
  • Add bash scripting examples for common Linux automation scenarios.
  • Where PowerShell is used for VM operations, provide equivalent Azure CLI or ARM template examples.
  • Clarify in the prerequisites that PowerShell is optional and not required for Linux/macOS users.
