Yeah, absolutely no reason you couldn't do this (quickly) with Node. The only reason I see to use Python over Node here is for a smaller dep tree (sane Node development still requires a lot of dependencies) and some more mature CLI libraries - lots of CLI apps are written in Python.

- rcarmo 10y agoYep. This. I know it's not cool to point this out and that front-end folks upgrade Node all the time, but installing Node on a "normal" machine inside your average IT environment is a complete pain, whereas you can do pip install azure-cli as a regular user without installing anything else on most Linux distros out of the box. Also, I've had nothing but trouble with recent Node versions (and I'm a pyenv/rbenv/*env/etc. guy, have multiple runtimes of everything around, etc. - but most people would try once and never try again).
