Summary
The documentation demonstrates Windows bias by exclusively referencing Windows in the virtual machine creation instructions ("Create a Virtual Machine Running Windows Server") and omitting equivalent Linux VM creation steps or links. The example for verifying communication uses generic commands (ping), but the VM creation section is Windows-centric and does not provide parity for Linux users.
Recommendations
- Add instructions and links for creating a Linux-based virtual machine in Azure, such as Ubuntu or CentOS, alongside the Windows VM example.
- Present both Windows and Linux VM creation options in parallel, or mention Linux first to avoid implicit prioritization of Windows.
- Ensure that subsequent steps (such as connecting, verifying communication, and using tools) include Linux-specific guidance where appropriate.
- Review all referenced links to ensure Linux equivalents are provided wherever Windows-specific documentation is cited.
