Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a bias towards Windows by exclusively providing a VM creation example using a Windows image ('win2016datacenter') and referencing Windows-specific username and password requirements. There are no examples or guidance for creating a Linux VM, nor are Linux-specific considerations mentioned. The documentation does not offer parity for Linux users in its examples or instructions.
Recommendations
- Add a parallel example for creating a Linux VM (e.g., using '--image UbuntuLTS') with appropriate username and SSH key/password requirements.
- Include links to both Windows and Linux VM documentation for username/password/SSH requirements.
- Explicitly mention that the dashboard template and Azure CLI commands work for both Windows and Linux VMs.
- Ensure that template customization instructions include Linux VM naming conventions and authentication options.
- Review and update notes and references to avoid implying Windows is the default or only supported platform.
