Summary
The documentation page exhibits a Windows bias in several ways: Windows-specific preparation steps and examples are listed first or exclusively, PowerShell is emphasized as a primary management and deployment tool, and Windows tools (such as password reset via PowerShell) are mentioned without Linux equivalents. Linux-specific instructions and parity in examples are lacking or appear secondary.
Recommendations
  • Ensure Linux VM preparation steps and examples are provided alongside Windows, with equal detail and prominence.
  • Include Linux-specific management tools and workflows (e.g., SSH, cloud-init, Linux password reset methods) where PowerShell or Windows tools are referenced.
  • Present examples and links for both Windows and Linux in parallel, rather than listing Windows first or exclusively.
  • Add explicit Linux CLI/script examples for common tasks such as VM creation, management, and disk operations.
  • Clarify which extensions and features are available for Linux VMs, and provide Linux-specific guidance where needed.
