Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: Windows extensions are listed and described before Linux extensions, the Windows table is significantly longer and more detailed, and several Windows-specific tools and patterns (e.g., Windows Admin Center, PowerShell, Windows Patch extension) are highlighted. There are more Windows-only extensions and features described, and Windows tools are mentioned explicitly, while Linux equivalents are less emphasized or missing. The deployment methods list Azure PowerShell (Windows-centric) before CLI, and Windows Admin Center is featured as a management tool without a Linux counterpart.
Recommendations
- Present Windows and Linux extension tables in parallel or interleaved, rather than listing Windows first and in more detail.
- Ensure parity in extension descriptions and examples for Linux, including more Linux-specific extensions and management tools.
- Highlight Linux management tools (such as Cockpit, Ansible, or native SSH) where appropriate, similar to the mention of Windows Admin Center.
- Provide Linux-first or cross-platform examples for extension deployment, and avoid listing Windows-centric tools (e.g., PowerShell) before cross-platform alternatives (e.g., Azure CLI).
- Expand documentation to include Linux-specific automation and configuration scenarios, ensuring equal coverage for both platforms.
