Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a strong Windows bias. All backend VM configuration examples use Windows Server 2016 with IIS, and only PowerShell commands are provided for web server setup. There are no Linux-based examples or references to Linux tools (such as Apache or Nginx), and no Bash or shell commands are shown. The documentation implicitly assumes a Windows environment for web hosting, omitting Linux alternatives entirely.
Recommendations:
- Add parallel Linux-based examples for backend web server setup, such as using Ubuntu VMs with Apache or Nginx.
- Provide equivalent Bash/shell commands for installing and configuring web servers on Linux VMs.
- Explicitly mention that both Windows and Linux VMs are supported as backend pools, and illustrate this with screenshots or configuration steps.
- Where PowerShell is used, offer Linux command-line alternatives side-by-side.
- Update diagrams and screenshots to include Linux VM icons or references where appropriate.
