Summary
The documentation page exhibits Windows bias by exclusively providing examples for deploying Windows Server VMs (no Linux VM examples), using RDP (Windows Remote Desktop) for remote access, and referencing Windows-centric tools and patterns (e.g., PowerShell, RDP ports, Windows images) throughout both PowerShell and Azure CLI sections. Linux equivalents, such as SSH access or Linux VM images, are not mentioned or demonstrated, and all VM creation examples default to Windows Server.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux VM deployment examples alongside Windows Server examples in both Azure CLI and PowerShell sections (e.g., using Ubuntu or CentOS images).
  • Include instructions and code samples for configuring SSH access (port 22) for Linux VMs, including network security group rules and public IP assignment.
  • Mention and demonstrate Linux-friendly tools and patterns (e.g., SSH, Linux images) before or alongside Windows-specific ones.
  • Clarify in the documentation that both Windows and Linux VMs are supported, and provide guidance for users who prefer Linux.
  • Ensure ARM template snippets and references are not Windows-specific, or provide Linux variants where appropriate.
