Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows. All examples use Windows VMs, PowerShell scripts, and Windows-specific tools (e.g., Install-WindowsFeature, powershell.exe). There is no mention of Linux VM extensions, Bash scripts, or Linux configuration patterns. The tutorial exclusively demonstrates deploying a Windows VM and configuring IIS, with no Linux alternatives or parity.
Recommendations
  • Provide parallel examples for Linux VMs, such as deploying a Custom Script Extension to install Apache or Nginx using Bash scripts.
  • Include Linux-specific commands and configuration patterns (e.g., using bash, apt-get, systemctl) alongside PowerShell examples.
  • Reference both Windows and Linux extension documentation and quickstart templates, giving equal prominence.
  • Show how to retrieve the public IP address using both PowerShell and Bash/Azure CLI.
  • Clarify in the introduction that the tutorial focuses on Windows, and link to a Linux-focused equivalent if available.
