Summary
The documentation is largely platform-neutral, but there is a subtle Windows bias in the ordering and examples. The instructions for creating a VM use Azure CLI with a Linux image, but there is no explicit mention of Linux-specific steps or alternatives to Windows tools. The documentation does not provide PowerShell or Windows-specific examples, but it also does not offer Linux-specific troubleshooting, systemd/service setup, or package management instructions. The focus is on Azure portal and CLI, which are cross-platform, but the lack of explicit Linux parity in examples and troubleshooting can be considered a mild bias.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Linux examples for common deployment scenarios, such as systemd service setup, log file locations, and troubleshooting steps.
  • Include Linux-specific recommendations for hardening, package installation (e.g., apt/yum commands), and Docker configuration.
  • Clarify that the instructions are applicable to both Linux and Windows VMs, and provide Windows-specific examples where relevant (e.g., using PowerShell, Windows containers).
  • Provide parity in troubleshooting and operational guidance for both Linux and Windows environments.
