Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways. Windows-specific tools and patterns (such as PowerShell scripts and references to Visual Studio and Active Directory) are mentioned exclusively or before Linux equivalents. Most automation and scripting examples reference PowerShell, with no mention of Bash, CLI, or Linux-native approaches. VM creation and customization examples focus on Windows images and tools, and there is a lack of explicit Linux examples or parity in artifact/tool references.
Recommendations
- Add Linux-focused examples for lab creation, VM provisioning, and automation (e.g., Bash scripts, Azure CLI commands).
- Include references to Linux tools and artifacts (such as installing common Linux packages, using SSH, or joining Linux domains).
- Balance mentions of Windows and Linux images when discussing VM creation and formulas.
- Provide equivalent instructions for deleting VMs/labs using Linux-native tools (e.g., Bash, Azure CLI), not just PowerShell.
- Reference cross-platform editors and tools (e.g., VS Code, JetBrains IDEs) alongside Windows-only tools like Visual Studio.
- Explicitly mention support for Linux environments in multi-VM scenarios, with concrete examples.
