Summary
The documentation page shows mild Windows bias. Windows is listed first in the validation tools table, and PowerShell Desired State Configuration (DSC) is emphasized for both Windows and Linux, with no mention of native Linux configuration tools like Ansible or shell scripting. References to configuring managed identities link specifically to Windows VM portal instructions, and PowerShell is mentioned more prominently than Azure CLI. Chef InSpec is listed for Linux, but only as a secondary tool.
Recommendations
- Provide examples and links for configuring managed identities on Linux VMs, not just Windows.
- Mention and, where possible, support native Linux configuration tools (e.g., Ansible, Bash scripts) in addition to PowerShell DSC.
- List Linux validation tools first or equally in tables and explanations.
- Ensure Azure CLI examples are given equal prominence to Azure PowerShell, especially for cross-platform tasks.
- Clarify that PowerShell DSC v3 for Linux is not the only option and provide guidance for users preferring native Linux tools.
