Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways. The bulk of the scripted automation example is provided only in PowerShell, which is a Windows-centric tool, and the script is explicitly described as updating Windows VMs. There is no equivalent Bash or shell script for Linux automation. In manual update instructions, PowerShell is presented first and in greater detail, with CLI examples following. The documentation also references Windows tools and patterns (e.g., PowerShell, Windows VM detection) more frequently and with more depth than Linux equivalents.
Recommendations
- Provide a Bash or shell script example for bulk updating the Network Watcher extension on Linux VMs, similar to the PowerShell script for Windows.
- Ensure that CLI examples are presented before or alongside PowerShell examples to avoid Windows-first ordering.
- Where PowerShell is used, clarify cross-platform availability or provide alternatives for Linux users (e.g., Azure CLI, Bash).
- Balance screenshots and walkthroughs to show both Linux and Windows environments.
- Explicitly mention and demonstrate Linux-specific troubleshooting or update patterns where applicable.
