Summary
The documentation page exhibits mild Windows bias. Windows-specific tools (such as PowerShell) are mentioned for discovering supported images, and Windows OS-specific configuration (TLS/cipher suites) is discussed in detail, with direct links to Windows documentation. Linux is acknowledged as supported, but Linux-specific examples, tools, or configuration guidance are missing or less prominent. Windows tools and patterns are referenced before Linux equivalents, and there is a lack of parity in example coverage and operational details for Linux environments.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux-specific examples and guidance for key operations, such as discovering supported images (e.g., using Bash, Azure CLI, or REST API from Linux).
- Include links to Linux documentation for configuring SSL/TLS and cipher suites, similar to the Windows section.
- Ensure parity in operational details for both Windows and Linux, such as how to manage OS-level security settings, automatic updates, and custom images.
- When referencing tools (e.g., PowerShell), also mention and provide examples for Azure CLI and Bash scripts.
- Balance the order of presentation so that Linux and Windows are treated equally, or alternate which is presented first.
