Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in several areas: remote access instructions exclusively use RDP (Remote Desktop Protocol), which is Windows-specific, and reference IIS (Internet Information Services) as the default web server, also Windows-centric. There are no instructions for connecting to the VM via SSH (the standard for Linux/macOS) or for accessing a Linux-based web server. All examples for connecting to the VM and verifying the service are tailored to Windows users, with no Linux/macOS alternatives provided.
Recommendations
  • Add instructions for connecting to the VM using SSH, including example commands for Linux/macOS users.
  • Include examples for deploying and accessing a Linux-based web server (e.g., Apache or Nginx) in addition to IIS.
  • Provide parity in remote access instructions, such as using Azure Bastion or SSH tunnels, which work across platforms.
  • Clearly indicate when steps are Windows-specific and offer equivalent steps for Linux/macOS environments.
