Summary
The documentation page is heavily biased toward Windows. All examples and instructions focus exclusively on deploying VM extensions to Windows VMs, using PowerShell scripts and Windows-specific tooling (e.g., Install-WindowsFeature, powershell.exe). There is no mention of Linux VM extensions, Bash scripts, or Linux configuration patterns. The quickstart template and script examples are Windows-only, and the tutorial does not provide Linux equivalents or alternatives.
Recommendations
- Add parallel examples for deploying VM extensions to Linux VMs, including sample Bash scripts and usage of Linux-specific extensions (e.g., CustomScript for Linux).
- Include a Linux quickstart template (e.g., 'Deploy a simple Linux VM') and show how to edit it to add a VM extension.
- Provide instructions for running Bash scripts via the Custom Script extension on Linux, including sample commandToExecute values.
- Mention Linux tools and patterns (e.g., apt-get for installing packages, systemctl for service management) alongside Windows examples.
- Ensure that both Windows and Linux scenarios are covered equally throughout the tutorial, including prerequisites, deployment, and cleanup steps.
