Summary
The documentation page exhibits a Windows bias by providing PowerShell as the only command-line example for resource provider registration, using a Windows image in the ARM template, and specifying 'osType: Windows' for VM deployment. There are no Linux/Unix shell examples, nor is there mention of Linux VM images or configuration patterns. Windows tools and workflows (PowerShell, WindowsServer image) are presented exclusively and/or before any Linux alternatives.
Recommendations
  • Add Azure CLI (bash) examples alongside PowerShell for resource provider registration and other command-line operations.
  • Include ARM template snippets or parameter options for deploying Linux-based VMs (e.g., Ubuntu, CentOS) with 'osType: Linux' and appropriate image references.
  • Ensure documentation mentions both Windows and Linux VM deployment scenarios, and provides guidance for each.
  • Present cross-platform instructions in parallel tabs or sections, with equal prominence for Linux and Windows workflows.
  • Reference Linux tools and patterns (e.g., bash, SSH, cloud-init) where relevant, not just Windows-centric approaches.
