Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively providing PowerShell examples for listing available VM sizes, referencing Windows-centric tools (PowerShell, Visual Studio) in deployment instructions, and omitting equivalent Linux/CLI examples. The ordering of deployment options also places Windows tools before cross-platform alternatives.
Recommendations
- Add Azure CLI examples for listing available VM sizes, which are cross-platform and commonly used on Linux.
- Include instructions for deploying Cloud Services using the Azure CLI and/or ARM templates, with explicit Linux compatibility notes.
- Reorder deployment options to present cross-platform tools (Azure portal, CLI, templates) before Windows-specific tools (PowerShell, Visual Studio).
- Where PowerShell is used, provide equivalent Bash/CLI commands to ensure parity for Linux users.
- Explicitly mention platform compatibility for each tool or example, helping users choose the best option for their environment.
