Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways. Windows-based VM images and configuration patterns are presented first and in more detail, especially in .NET/C# examples. Windows-specific tools (PowerShell cmdlets) are mentioned before cross-platform alternatives, and C#/.NET examples use Windows VM images by default. There is a lack of parity in Linux-focused examples, especially in the .NET section, and no explicit Linux shell or CLI examples are provided. Python examples do use Ubuntu images, but overall, Windows is prioritized and Linux usage is not equally represented.
Recommendations
  • Provide .NET/C# examples that use Linux VM images (e.g., Ubuntu or other supported distros) alongside Windows examples.
  • Ensure that references to tools (PowerShell, CLI) are balanced, and include Linux shell (bash) or cross-platform CLI examples where possible.
  • When listing SDKs and APIs, avoid mentioning Windows-specific tools first; present cross-platform options together or alternate order.
  • Add explicit Linux-focused configuration and usage examples for all major SDKs, including REST, .NET, and Python.
  • Clarify that autoscale features work equally well with both Windows and Linux pools, and link to documentation for Linux node setup.
  • Include troubleshooting or tips sections for both Windows and Linux environments.
