Summary

This PR adds the Bicep CLI (v0.33.0+) as a prerequisite to the local deployment guide of this Generic Solution Accelerator.

The infrastructure-as-code templates in this repository (under infra/) require a recent version of the Bicep CLI to compile and deploy successfully via azd up / az deployment. Without the minimum supported version, users running the deployment locally encounter cryptic compilation errors due to unsupported syntax/features in older Bicep releases.

Changes

  • Added a Bicep CLI (v0.33.0+) entry to the prerequisites list of the local deployment guide, following the exact format and style of the existing prerequisite entries (azd, Python, Node.js, etc.) in this repo.

Why

  • Aligns the local deployment guide with the actual minimum Bicep version required by the Bicep templates in this repository.
  • Prevents first-run failures for new users provisioning the accelerator from a fresh local environment.
  • Brings this accelerator in line with the standard prerequisite set being rolled out across all CSA Generic Solution Accelerators (GSAs).

Type of Change

  • Documentation update
  • Bug fix
  • New feature
  • Breaking change

Testing

  • Verified the Markdown renders correctly on GitHub (entry appears in the prerequisites list, link resolves to the official Microsoft Learn install page).
  • Confirmed the change is scoped to documentation only — no code, infrastructure, or configuration paths are modified.

Checklist

  • My change follows the existing documentation style and formatting of the repository.
  • I have performed a self-review of my changes.
  • No new warnings, broken links, or formatting issues are introduced.
  • No code, configuration, or behavior changes are included in this PR (docs-only).
