Summary
The documentation generally maintains parity between Windows and Linux, especially in recent updates, but there is evidence of Windows bias. Windows examples and tools (such as PowerShell modules and scripts) are mentioned first or exclusively in several places, and Windows-specific onboarding scripts and support for Windows Server versions are highlighted before or more prominently than Linux equivalents. Linux support is present and improving, but Windows tooling and terminology (e.g., Az modules, PowerShell Gallery) are referenced more often and sometimes without Linux alternatives.
Recommendations
- Ensure that Linux examples, scripts, and tools are mentioned alongside Windows equivalents, not after or as an afterthought.
- Where onboarding scripts or modules are referenced (e.g., Az modules, PowerShell Gallery), include explicit links or references to Linux-compatible alternatives or instructions.
- When listing supported operating systems or features, alternate the order between Windows and Linux, or group them together to avoid implicit prioritization.
- Expand documentation to include more Linux-specific troubleshooting, usage patterns, and best practices, especially for hybrid scenarios.
- Audit all example scripts and references to ensure Linux users are equally supported and not required to adapt Windows-centric instructions.
