Summary
The documentation page exhibits several signs of Windows bias. PowerShell commands are provided for key setup steps (service principal creation) without Linux CLI equivalents. Windows tools (PuTTY) are mentioned as the primary SSH client, and Windows connection instructions are referenced before Linux ones. There is a lack of Linux-native command examples (e.g., Azure CLI, Bash) for tasks like service principal creation and key management, and the documentation often defaults to Windows-centric patterns and tools.
Recommendations
  • Provide Azure CLI or Bash equivalents for all PowerShell commands, especially for service principal and key creation steps.
  • Mention Linux-native SSH clients (e.g., OpenSSH, terminal SSH) before or alongside PuTTY, and clarify platform-specific instructions.
  • Ensure connection instructions for Linux VMs are as detailed and prominent as those for Windows VMs.
  • Where Windows tools or patterns are referenced, offer Linux alternatives in parallel.
  • Review the order of presentation so that Linux and Windows instructions/examples are given equal prominence and detail.
