Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: Windows-specific tools (PowerShell) are featured with example commands, while equivalent Linux shell commands are missing; references to configuring managed identities on Windows VMs are given before Linux VM equivalents; and Azure CLI and PowerShell are both shown, but no Bash or Linux shell scripting examples are included. Portal screenshots and instructions are platform-neutral, but the command-line guidance and code samples lean toward Windows environments.
Recommendations
- Add explicit examples for configuring managed identities on Linux VMs, with links to relevant documentation.
- Provide Bash or Linux shell scripting equivalents for PowerShell commands, especially for resource creation and configuration.
- Include Linux-focused CLI usage patterns, such as environment variable export via 'export' rather than 'Set-EnvironmentVariable'.
- Ensure that SDK usage examples (e.g., authentication with environment variables) show both Windows and Linux methods.
- Where PowerShell is used, add a corresponding Bash/CLI example and clarify platform applicability.
- Review the order of presenting platform-specific instructions to avoid Windows-first bias; present cross-platform or Linux instructions first or side-by-side.
