Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively using PowerShell commands for project setup and environment variable management, without providing equivalent Linux/macOS shell examples. All CLI and environment variable instructions are shown in PowerShell syntax, and no mention is made of Bash or other Unix shells. This may hinder Linux/macOS users from following the guide seamlessly.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent Bash (Linux/macOS) examples alongside PowerShell commands for project setup (e.g., mkdir, cd, touch demo.py).
- Show how to set environment variables in Bash (e.g., export AZURE_CLIENT_ID=...) in addition to PowerShell.
- Explicitly mention cross-platform compatibility and direct users to choose the appropriate shell commands for their OS.
- Consider using generic CLI commands (e.g., Azure CLI) in a way that is OS-agnostic, or provide both Windows and Linux/macOS instructions side by side.
