Summary
The documentation exhibits Windows bias in several ways: Windows PowerShell is mentioned explicitly and given its own section, with instructions to 'open a Windows PowerShell command window.' In the Azure CLI section, Windows PowerShell is suggested as an example of a 'command console application,' with no mention of Linux/macOS terminals. There are no explicit Linux or macOS examples, nor are cross-platform shell differences discussed. Windows tools and terminology (PowerShell, Windows command window) are referenced before or instead of Linux equivalents.
Recommendations
  • In CLI instructions, mention cross-platform shells (e.g., Bash, Terminal on macOS, Linux shells) alongside Windows PowerShell.
  • In PowerShell sections, clarify that Azure PowerShell is available on Linux and macOS, and provide installation/use instructions for those platforms.
  • Provide explicit Linux/macOS examples for CLI and PowerShell usage, or note that commands are platform-agnostic where appropriate.
  • Avoid phrases like 'open a Windows PowerShell command window'; use 'open a terminal or PowerShell window' and clarify platform options.
  • Add notes or tabs for Linux/macOS users where workflows or commands differ, ensuring parity in guidance.
