Summary
The documentation provides both CLI and PowerShell examples, but PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) is given a dedicated section with multiple examples, while Linux-native scripting (e.g., Bash) is not mentioned. In ARM template examples, Windows image references are used by default. The ordering of sections places PowerShell after CLI, but the template example for VMs uses a Windows image, and there is no explicit Linux template example.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Linux template examples (e.g., using Ubuntu image references) alongside the Windows ones.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI commands work cross-platform and consider providing Bash shell script examples where appropriate.
  • Balance PowerShell examples with equivalent Bash or shell script snippets for Linux/macOS users.
  • In ARM template examples, show both Windows and Linux imageReference blocks or note how to adapt for Linux.
  • Mention that PowerShell Core is cross-platform, or clarify when examples are Windows-only.
