Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell examples for authentication and making REST API calls. However, Azure PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) is given equal prominence to Azure CLI, and in some cases, PowerShell-specific patterns (such as Invoke-WebRequest) are used without mentioning Linux-native alternatives (e.g., curl or httpie in bash). Additionally, links to further deployment instructions reference Visual Studio Code and PowerShell, which are more commonly associated with Windows environments. There are no explicit Linux-only examples or mentions of Linux-native scripting environments beyond the use of curl.
Recommendations
  • Provide bash and curl-only examples (without Azure CLI) for authentication and REST calls, to support Linux and macOS users who may not use PowerShell.
  • When listing tabs for code examples, consider listing Azure CLI (bash) first, as it is cross-platform, and PowerShell second.
  • Include references to Linux-native tools (e.g., httpie, wget) where appropriate.
  • Add a section or callout explicitly stating that all REST API operations can be performed from Linux/macOS terminals using standard tools.
  • When referencing further documentation, balance links to PowerShell and Visual Studio Code with links to Linux-friendly tools and editors.
