Summary
The documentation page presents both Windows (PowerShell) and Linux (Bash) examples for authenticating against Azure resources with Azure Arc-enabled servers. However, Windows/PowerShell instructions and references are frequently listed first, and PowerShell is emphasized in key steps (e.g., assigning access policies, next steps). Windows-specific tools and terminology (e.g., IIS, PowerShell, Administrators group) are mentioned more prominently than their Linux equivalents, and links to Windows instructions often precede Linux ones.
Recommendations
- Alternate the order of Windows and Linux examples throughout the documentation, or present them side-by-side for parity.
- Provide equal emphasis and detail for Linux/Bash instructions, including screenshots and troubleshooting notes.
- Reference both Windows and Linux tools/groups in prerequisite and procedural sections, avoiding Windows-first phrasing.
- Ensure all linked tutorials and next steps offer both PowerShell and Azure CLI (cross-platform) options, with CLI presented as the default or equally with PowerShell.
- Include explicit notes or callouts for macOS users where applicable.
