Bias Analysis

Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. The core template example is for deploying a Windows VM, and there is no mention of a Linux VM template or how to adapt the process for Linux. The RDP verification step is Windows-specific, and there is no SSH guidance for Linux VMs. However, deployment instructions are provided for both Azure CLI (Bash) and PowerShell, and the Cloud Shell is cross-platform.
Recommendations
  • Include a parallel example/template for deploying a Linux VM (e.g., Ubuntu), or at least mention how to adapt the template for Linux.
  • In the 'Open a Quickstart template' section, provide both Windows and Linux VM template links, or explain how to choose between them.
  • In the verification step, add instructions for connecting to a Linux VM using SSH, not just RDP.
  • Consider reordering or balancing examples so Linux is not always secondary to Windows.
  • Explicitly state that the process is similar for Linux VMs, and link to relevant Linux documentation.
