Summary
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Windows and PowerShell examples are consistently present and sometimes appear before or with more detail than Linux equivalents. PowerShell cmdlets are provided for both viewing and updating settings, while Linux users are directed to use Azure CLI only. Some features (such as pinning via portal or PowerShell) are explicitly unavailable for Linux, but this is not always highlighted early. There is more guidance and tooling for Windows users, and Linux instructions sometimes require support intervention or lack parity (e.g., no portal/PowerShell support for linuxFxVersion).
Recommendations
  • Ensure Linux instructions are presented with equal prominence and detail as Windows instructions, including in the order of examples.
  • Provide Linux-specific examples for all major workflows, including viewing and updating settings, and clarify limitations up front.
  • Where PowerShell is used for Windows, consider providing Bash or shell script equivalents for Linux users.
  • Expand portal instructions to clarify what is and isn't supported for Linux, and offer alternative workflows where portal/PowerShell are unavailable.
  • Add a summary table comparing feature parity between Windows and Linux to help users quickly understand differences.
  • Highlight any limitations for Linux (such as lack of portal/PowerShell support for linuxFxVersion) at the beginning of the relevant sections.
