Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell examples for deploying ARM templates. However, the PowerShell examples are given equal prominence to Azure CLI, and there is no mention of Bash or Linux-native scripting alternatives beyond Azure CLI. The use of PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool, though now cross-platform) and the absence of Bash or shell script examples may indicate a Windows bias. Additionally, the PowerShell section is presented as a primary tab, which may reinforce the perception of Windows-first documentation.
Recommendations
  • Add Bash or shell script examples for Linux/macOS users, especially for common deployment tasks.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI commands can be run in Bash, Cloud Shell (Bash), or other shells, and provide explicit Bash examples where appropriate.
  • If PowerShell is included, note its cross-platform availability, but avoid implying it is the default or preferred method for all users.
  • Consider reordering or balancing the prominence of PowerShell and CLI sections, or explicitly stating that Azure CLI is recommended for cross-platform use.
  • Include troubleshooting notes or tips for Linux/macOS users if there are known differences in behavior or prerequisites.
