Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing Windows file paths (e.g., c:\Templates\...), presenting PowerShell examples and terminology before Azure CLI, and omitting explicit Linux/macOS file path examples. The instructions and examples assume a Windows environment, with no mention of Linux-specific considerations or shell usage.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux/macOS file path examples (e.g., /home/user/Templates/linkedTS/azuredeploy.json) alongside Windows paths.
  • Explicitly mention that the instructions apply to all platforms, and clarify any OS-specific differences.
  • Present Azure CLI examples before or alongside PowerShell, as CLI is cross-platform.
  • Include notes or tabs for Bash or other common Linux shells where variables or commands differ.
  • Avoid using Windows-specific terminology (e.g., 'local computer' with Windows paths) without also referencing Linux/macOS equivalents.
  • Add troubleshooting notes for Linux/macOS if there are known issues, not just for Windows PowerShell.

## Deploy template spec

You can now deploy the template spec. Deploying the template spec is just like deploying the template it contains, except that you pass in the resource ID of the template spec. You use the same deployment commands, and if needed, pass in parameter values for the template spec.
