Summary
The documentation demonstrates several types of Windows bias. Windows tools and patterns (such as PowerShell and sysprep) are frequently mentioned first or exclusively, sometimes with more detailed steps than their Linux equivalents. Windows-specific requirements (such as needing a Windows computer for PowerShell) are stated before Linux alternatives. Some examples and instructions (e.g., domain join, VM agent installation, proxy configuration) provide more detail for Windows, while Linux instructions are more concise or referenced externally. In some cases, Linux examples are missing or less emphasized compared to Windows.
Recommendations
- Ensure Linux instructions are as detailed and explicit as Windows instructions, including step-by-step guides for common tasks (e.g., joining a Linux VM to an LDAP/AD domain, agent installation, troubleshooting).
- Present Linux and Windows options in parallel, rather than listing Windows first or exclusively. For example, mention Azure CLI and Linux tools before or alongside PowerShell.
- Where Windows-only features are described (e.g., domain join), clarify Linux alternatives or explicitly state limitations.
- Provide Linux command-line examples for all major deployment and configuration scenarios, not just references to external guides.
- Review prerequisites to avoid implying that a Windows computer is required for all management tasks; clarify that Linux workstations can be used with Azure CLI and SSH.
- Balance the use of Windows and Linux logos and visual cues throughout the documentation.
- Add troubleshooting and best practices sections specific to Linux deployments, matching the depth provided for Windows.
