Summary
The documentation page is generally neutral in its description of Azure DevTest Labs features, and it explicitly mentions Linux VM support as a differentiator. However, the transition steps and FAQs lack concrete Linux-specific examples or guidance, and most instructions (such as VM creation, image management, and access) are presented generically or with an implicit Windows-first approach. The only Linux-specific mention is a single note about SSH access, which is relegated to an 'Important' callout at the end of the transition steps, rather than integrated into the main workflow or examples.
Recommendations
- Provide explicit step-by-step examples for both Windows and Linux VM creation, configuration, and access, including screenshots or command-line instructions where appropriate.
- Include Linux-specific tooling and access patterns (e.g., SSH, cloud-init, Linux Marketplace images) alongside Windows equivalents in all relevant sections.
- Mention Linux VM management tasks (such as package installation, remote desktop alternatives, and troubleshooting) in the transition steps and FAQs.
- Ensure that Linux access instructions (such as SSH setup, firewall rules, and key management) are integrated into the main workflow, not just as a side note.
- Highlight any differences or considerations for Linux users (e.g., image compatibility, automation, cost tracking) in the FAQ and scenario guidance sections.
