Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Azure Portal (a GUI tool most familiar to Windows users), Azure PowerShell, and Azure CLI for all command-line examples. PowerShell is featured equally with CLI, and there are no explicit Linux shell (bash) or cross-platform scripting examples. There are no references to Linux-specific tools, nor are there any screenshots or instructions for Linux environments. The Azure Portal workflow is described in detail, but no mention is made of using the Azure CLI in a native Linux shell or with scripting. The order of presentation (Portal, CLI, PowerShell) also subtly prioritizes Windows-centric tools and workflows.
Recommendations
- Add explicit Linux shell (bash) examples for Azure CLI commands, including copy-pasteable commands and notes about running them in a Linux terminal.
- Include screenshots or instructions for using the Azure CLI in a Linux environment (e.g., Ubuntu terminal), or mention that the CLI commands work cross-platform.
- Clarify that Azure PowerShell is available on Linux, but also provide bash or shell script equivalents for all PowerShell examples.
- Consider reordering sections to present Azure CLI (which is cross-platform) before PowerShell, and clarify the cross-platform nature of the CLI.
- Add a note or section about using these workflows on Linux, including any differences or prerequisites (such as installing the Azure CLI on Linux).

Flagged Code Snippets
### Enable managed identity using Azure PowerShell You can use Azure PowerShell for creating a new cache with managed identity by using [New-AzRedisCache](/powershell/module/az.rediscache/new-azrediscache). You can update an existing cache to use managed identity by using [Set-AzRedisCache](/powershell/module/az.rediscache/set-azrediscache). For example, to update a cache to use system-managed identity, use the following Azure PowerShell command:
