Summary
The documentation page exhibits Windows bias primarily in the 'Install the VM agent' section, where Windows instructions are presented first and in greater detail, including download links, file paths, and verification steps. In contrast, Linux instructions are brief, lack explicit command examples, and defer to distribution repositories without showing concrete installation or verification steps. No Linux command-line examples (e.g., shell commands) are provided anywhere, while Windows-specific file paths and actions are described. The overall flow and screenshots are platform-neutral, but the agent installation guidance favors Windows.
Recommendations
- Provide explicit Linux installation commands (e.g., 'sudo apt install walinuxagent' or 'sudo yum install WALinuxAgent') for popular distributions.
- Include Linux verification steps, such as checking the agent version ('waagent --version') and relevant file paths.
- Present Windows and Linux instructions in parallel, with equal detail and prominence.
- Add troubleshooting tips for both platforms, not just Windows.
- Ensure that examples and screenshots (where applicable) represent both Windows and Linux environments.
