Thanks everyone who attended my Linux on Azure presentation last evening, but I guess I gave my presentation a day early. Microsoft just announced today (at Build) a bash shell built into the Azure portal!
Now instead of spinning up a linux virtual machine, or installing azure cli on your linux laptop, you can instead use bash to manage your entire Azure environment right from any browser.
Plus, an Azure app for iOS and Android was also announced and it also includes the bash shell so you can use bash to manage Azure from a mobile device.
Would have made a great demo. Perhaps at a future meeting.
And just a side note, Azure bash shell has been released before the PowerShell module.
