Summary
The documentation page exhibits Windows bias in several ways: Windows-based VM images are used first and exclusively in .NET examples, with no Linux equivalent shown; PowerShell and Windows tools are referenced before or instead of cross-platform or Linux alternatives; C#/.NET examples dominate code samples, with limited Python coverage and no Linux shell/CLI examples; and there is a lack of explicit Linux-focused instructions or parity in SDK usage and pool configuration examples.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux VM configuration examples in .NET code samples, e.g., using Ubuntu or other Linux images, alongside Windows examples.
- Include Linux shell (bash) and Azure CLI examples for pool creation and autoscale configuration, not just PowerShell or .NET.
- Ensure that references to PowerShell are balanced with equivalent bash/CLI instructions, and mention Linux tools where appropriate.
- Add explicit instructions and code samples for enabling autoscale on Linux pools using .NET, Python, and CLI.
- Present Windows and Linux options side-by-side in tables and code blocks, rather than Windows-first or Windows-only.
- Reference cross-platform SDKs and tools (e.g., Azure CLI) before platform-specific ones, or at least equally.
