Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a notable Windows bias, especially in the 'Use a custom DNS server' section, where only Windows-specific tools (Chocolatey, ARMClient via PowerShell) are mentioned and example commands are provided exclusively for Windows. There are no Linux/macOS equivalents or alternative instructions. Additionally, Windows tools and patterns are presented first and exclusively, with no parity for other platforms.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux/macOS alternatives for ARMClient installation (e.g., via npm or direct download) and usage.
  • Include bash/curl examples for querying Azure REST APIs, as ARMClient is cross-platform but not installed via Chocolatey on Linux/macOS.
  • Mention package managers and installation steps for Linux (apt, yum, Homebrew) and macOS.
  • Add troubleshooting and verification steps using Linux-native tools (e.g., dig, curl) alongside nslookup.
  • Clearly indicate cross-platform options wherever possible, and avoid assuming Windows as the default environment.
