Summary
The documentation relies exclusively on Azure PowerShell cmdlets for all deployment, verification, and removal steps, even for Linux VMs. All command-line examples, outputs, and screenshots are shown in a Windows environment (e.g., PS C:\WINDOWS\system32>), and there is no mention of Linux-native tools (such as Azure CLI or Bash scripting). The instructions assume the user is operating from a Windows client, which may create friction for Linux/macOS users.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Azure CLI (az) commands for all steps, especially for Linux VM scenarios.
  • Include examples and screenshots from a Linux terminal (e.g., Bash shell) to demonstrate cross-platform usage.
  • Clarify that Azure PowerShell can be installed and used on Linux/macOS, or provide links to installation guides.
  • Reorder or balance examples so that Linux instructions are not always shown after Windows, or use neutral ordering.
  • Explicitly state platform requirements and alternatives for users not on Windows.
