Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several ways: feature registration is shown only with PowerShell and Azure portal, with no Azure CLI or Linux shell example; the ARM template exclusively provisions Windows VMs (WindowsServer image, osType: Windows) with no mention of Linux alternatives; and Windows-centric tools (PowerShell) are referenced before cross-platform options. There are no Linux or Bash examples for registration, deployment, or VM configuration.
Recommendations
  • Add Azure CLI and Bash examples for resource provider registration alongside PowerShell.
  • Include ARM template snippets or guidance for deploying Linux-based fleets (e.g., Ubuntu, CentOS images, osType: Linux).
  • Ensure that cross-platform tools (Azure CLI) are presented before or alongside Windows-specific tools.
  • Provide explicit instructions or links for Linux users on how to perform prerequisite steps and clean-up operations.
  • Clarify that the ARM template can be adapted for Linux VMs and show how to do so.
