Summary
The documentation consistently presents Azure PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) examples before Azure CLI, and in some cases provides PowerShell-only guidance (e.g., deploying with .bicepparam files is not supported in PowerShell). There is no mention of Linux-specific shell usage (e.g., Bash), nor are there examples tailored for Linux environments. The focus on PowerShell and lack of explicit Linux/Bash examples or notes may make the documentation less accessible for Linux users.
Recommendations
- Alternate the order of PowerShell and Azure CLI examples, or present Azure CLI (cross-platform) examples first to avoid Windows-first bias.
- Explicitly mention that Azure CLI commands work on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and provide Bash/zsh shell command examples where relevant.
- Add notes or sections for Linux users, including any OS-specific considerations (e.g., file paths, environment variables, shell syntax).
- Where PowerShell is referenced, clarify its availability on Linux and macOS, or provide equivalent Bash scripting examples.
- Review and update any statements or features that are PowerShell-only to clarify cross-platform support and provide alternatives if available.
