Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively providing PowerShell examples and references for management tasks such as rebooting and scheduling updates. There is no mention of Linux-specific tools or command-line examples (e.g., Bash, Azure CLI usage on Linux), nor are cross-platform instructions provided. PowerShell and its cmdlets are referenced as the primary or only method for scripting and automation, which may disadvantage Linux users or those preferring non-Windows environments.
Recommendations
  • Add equivalent Azure CLI examples for all management tasks (reboot, flush, schedule updates), with explicit instructions for Linux/macOS users.
  • Include Bash shell command examples where appropriate, especially for scripting or automation tasks.
  • Reference cross-platform tools (such as Azure CLI) before or alongside PowerShell, ensuring parity in documentation order and detail.
  • Clarify that PowerShell is available on Linux/macOS, but also provide native Linux shell alternatives to avoid implicit Windows-first bias.
  • Where screenshots or UI instructions are given, note any differences in experience for Linux users (e.g., portal accessibility, CLI usage).
