Summary
The documentation demonstrates a strong Windows bias. All deployment, tracking, and removal commands use PowerShell and Windows-centric AzureRM cmdlets, even for Linux VMs. Windows examples and file paths are presented first and in greater detail, while Linux examples are minimal and still rely on Windows tools for deployment. There are no examples using native Linux tools (e.g., Azure CLI, Bash), and Linux file paths and verification steps are less thoroughly documented.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux-native deployment examples using Azure CLI and Bash, not just PowerShell.
  • Include Linux terminal screenshots and outputs for parity with Windows examples.
  • Document Linux file paths and extension logs in equal detail to Windows.
  • Present Windows and Linux instructions side-by-side or in parallel sections, rather than Windows-first.
  • Reference Linux tools and patterns (e.g., az CLI, shell scripting) where appropriate.
  • Clarify that PowerShell is not required for Linux VM extension management, and offer alternatives.
