Summary
The documentation page exhibits a Windows bias in several ways. The Windows extensions table is presented before the Linux extensions table, and the Windows table is significantly longer and more detailed, listing more extensions and providing more links. Windows-specific tools and patterns (e.g., Windows Admin Center, PowerShell, Windows Patch extension) are mentioned, while their Linux equivalents are either missing or less emphasized. The partner extensions also list Windows variants first. The deployment methods mention Azure PowerShell (primarily Windows-focused) alongside Azure CLI, but do not provide parity for Linux-native management tools or shell examples.
Recommendations
- Present Windows and Linux extension tables side-by-side or alternate their order to avoid implicit prioritization.
- Ensure the number and detail of Linux extension examples matches that of Windows, including parity in links and descriptions.
- Add Linux-native management tool examples (e.g., Bash, shell scripts) where PowerShell is mentioned.
- Highlight Linux-specific extensions and use-cases, such as SELinux, systemd, or other common Linux management patterns.
- Where Windows-specific tools are referenced (e.g., Windows Admin Center), mention Linux alternatives or clarify their scope.
- In partner extension tables, alternate the order of Windows and Linux variants or combine them where possible.
- Review all extension documentation links to ensure Linux support is equally visible and accessible.
