Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by providing only PowerShell-based instructions for listing VM extensions in Azure Government, with no equivalent CLI or Linux-native example. The guidance assumes use of Windows tools and patterns, and the only code sample is in PowerShell. Linux users are not given direct instructions or parity in the main workflow.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent Azure CLI (az) instructions for listing VM extensions, which work cross-platform (Linux, macOS, Windows).
  • Present both PowerShell and CLI examples side-by-side, or clearly indicate that the CLI example is suitable for Linux users.
  • Avoid assuming PowerShell as the default tool; mention alternatives up front.
  • Ensure that Linux workflows are described with equal prominence and clarity as Windows/PowerShell workflows.
