Summary
The documentation page demonstrates Windows bias in several ways: PowerShell is the only CLI tool mentioned for checking instance status, with no Bash, Azure CLI, or Linux-native alternatives provided. In the 'Next steps' section, PowerShell and Visual Studio (Windows-centric tools) are listed before ARM template and Azure portal, and there are no explicit Linux or cross-platform deployment examples. Throughout, Windows tools and patterns are referenced exclusively or before their Linux equivalents, and Linux users are not given parity in operational guidance.
Recommendations
  • Add Azure CLI and Bash examples for checking instance status and performing swaps, alongside PowerShell.
  • Explicitly mention cross-platform tools (e.g., Azure CLI, REST API via curl) in all procedural sections.
  • In 'Next steps', list deployment options in a neutral order and include Linux-friendly tools (e.g., Azure CLI, VS Code).
  • Where PowerShell is referenced, provide equivalent commands for Bash/Azure CLI to ensure Linux users can follow along.
  • Review all examples and instructions to ensure Linux users are not excluded or forced to adapt Windows-centric workflows.
