Summary
The documentation page exhibits a Windows bias primarily through exclusive use of PowerShell for deployment commands, reliance on Windows-centric tooling and paths in examples, and lack of Linux-native command-line alternatives. While ARM template samples are provided for both Linux and Windows extensions, all deployment instructions and command-line examples use PowerShell, with Windows-style file paths and no mention of Bash, Azure CLI, or Linux shell equivalents. This may hinder Linux users or those working in non-Windows environments.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent deployment instructions using Azure CLI (az deployment group create) and Bash shell commands alongside PowerShell examples.
- Include Linux-style file paths (e.g., /home/user/Azure/Templates/...) in sample commands.
- Explicitly state that both Linux and Windows machines can be managed, and offer platform-agnostic or platform-specific guidance as needed.
- Add a section or note on how to run deployments from Linux/macOS environments, including prerequisites and any differences.
- Ensure parity in troubleshooting and management links for both PowerShell and Azure CLI.
- Consider reordering or balancing examples so that Linux and Windows are presented equally, rather than Windows-first or Windows-only.
