Summary
The documentation provides parity between Windows and Linux in most conceptual sections and explicitly states that Azure Arc-enabled servers can be Windows or Linux. However, there is a mild Windows bias in tooling references: Azure PowerShell is given its own section and detailed examples, while Linux users are directed to Azure CLI (which is cross-platform) but not to native Linux tools or shell scripts. The PowerShell section is more prominent and detailed, and Windows-only extensions are listed before Linux equivalents. The documentation mentions Windows tools (PowerShell) and provides installation guidance for the PowerShell module, but does not offer similar guidance for Linux-specific environments or scripting. The order of examples and extension lists tends to favor Windows-first presentation.
Recommendations
- Add explicit bash/zsh shell script examples for common extension management tasks, especially for Linux users who may not use Azure CLI or PowerShell.
- Provide installation and usage guidance for Azure CLI on Linux in the same detail as PowerShell on Windows.
- When listing extensions, group or order them by platform support (Windows-only, Linux-only, cross-platform) to clarify applicability.
- Ensure that Linux-specific troubleshooting or management patterns are mentioned where relevant.
- Consider adding a section on using automation tools common in Linux environments (e.g., Ansible, shell scripts) for extension management.
