Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: PowerShell is the only CLI example provided for duplicating policy definitions, with no Bash, Azure CLI, or Linux-native alternatives. Windows tools and patterns (PowerShell, Visual Studio Code) are mentioned exclusively or before cross-platform options. There are references to Windows-specific policy definitions (auditing Windows machines for pending reboots) without equivalent Linux-focused examples. Linux and macOS users are not given parity in troubleshooting steps or command-line instructions.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent Azure CLI or Bash examples alongside PowerShell scripts for all command-line instructions, especially for duplicating policy definitions.
- Mention cross-platform tools (e.g., Azure CLI, VS Code for Linux/macOS) equally or before Windows-specific tools.
- Include Linux-focused policy definition examples (e.g., auditing Linux machines for pending reboots) where Windows examples are given.
- Explicitly state that all troubleshooting steps and commands are applicable to both Windows and Linux, or provide platform-specific guidance as needed.
- Ensure that references to tools and patterns (such as VS Code extensions) clarify their availability on Linux/macOS.
