Summary
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. All command-line examples for both Windows and Linux VMs use PowerShell and Azure PowerShell cmdlets, with sample outputs shown from Windows environments (e.g., PS C:\WINDOWS\system32>). Windows instructions and examples are presented before Linux equivalents in most sections. The removal command for GPU extensions is only shown in PowerShell syntax, with no Linux-native CLI alternatives. Linux users are expected to use PowerShell, which is less common and may create friction.
Recommendations
  • Provide Azure CLI (az) examples alongside PowerShell for all deployment, tracking, and removal steps, as Azure CLI is cross-platform and more familiar to Linux/macOS users.
  • Show sample outputs from Linux terminals (e.g., bash) for Linux VM operations, rather than only Windows PowerShell prompts.
  • Clarify that PowerShell Core is required for Linux/macOS users, and provide installation guidance or alternatives.
  • Include bash script examples for common tasks where possible.
  • Present Windows and Linux instructions in parallel, rather than Windows-first.
