Summary
The documentation page exhibits moderate Windows bias. Several sections, such as Microsoft Antimalware and Windows Admin Center, focus exclusively on Windows tools and extensions, with no Linux equivalents or examples provided. Windows-specific configuration steps and policies are listed before Linux ones, and some features (e.g., Windows Admin Center) are only available for Windows VMs. There is a lack of parity in examples and guidance for Linux users, especially in areas like antimalware, admin tooling, and extension deployment.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent Linux examples and configuration steps wherever Windows-specific instructions are given, especially for antimalware and extension deployment.
- Explicitly mention Linux alternatives or note if a feature is Windows-only, to clarify platform support.
- Include Linux-first or cross-platform examples in sections that currently focus on Windows tools (e.g., Windows Admin Center).
- Balance the order of presentation so that Linux and Windows instructions are given equal prominence.
- Add guidance or references for managing Linux VMs using Azure-native or third-party tools, where Windows Admin Center is mentioned for Windows.
