Summary
The documentation page exhibits several forms of Windows bias. Windows tools and patterns (such as PowerShell and sysprep) are mentioned first or exclusively in key sections, including prerequisites, domain join, and VM agent installation. Windows-specific instructions are often more detailed, while Linux equivalents are sometimes less emphasized or only referenced as alternatives. PowerShell is presented as the default scripting tool, with Azure CLI for Linux users mentioned as a secondary option. Some advanced deployment scenarios and troubleshooting steps focus on Windows, with Linux examples or instructions missing or less comprehensive.
Recommendations
- Present Linux and Windows instructions side-by-side, giving equal prominence to both platforms in all scenarios.
- Include Linux command-line examples (e.g., Azure CLI, shell scripts) wherever PowerShell is used for Windows.
- Ensure that Linux prerequisites and tooling are described in as much detail as Windows equivalents, including supported distributions and versions.
- Expand Linux-specific troubleshooting and deployment guidance, matching the depth provided for Windows.
- Avoid phrases like 'Windows only' unless strictly necessary, and clarify when features or steps are platform-specific.
- List both Windows and Linux tools in resource sections, and avoid presenting Windows tools first by default.
- Add more links to Linux documentation and community resources, similar to those provided for Windows.
