Summary
The documentation page exhibits a Windows bias in several ways: Windows VM creation is linked in prerequisites, Windows registry/software/files are listed before Linux equivalents, and screenshots and step-by-step instructions focus on the Azure portal, which is more familiar to Windows users. In the CLI section, both Linux and Windows commands are provided, but the overall flow and examples tend to mention Windows first or exclusively in some places. There is a lack of parity in introductory examples and links for Linux VM creation, and the documentation does not provide Linux-specific troubleshooting or usage patterns.
Recommendations
- Add direct links to Linux VM creation guides in the prerequisites, alongside the Windows VM link.
- Ensure Linux examples and terminology are presented with equal prominence and order as Windows examples throughout the documentation.
- Include screenshots and step-by-step instructions that show Linux-specific scenarios in the Azure portal, such as managing Linux file changes.
- Provide Linux-specific troubleshooting tips and usage notes where Windows registry/software are mentioned.
- Review the support matrix and ensure Linux features and limitations are clearly documented and referenced in the quickstart.
