Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a notable Windows bias. The only example for creating the required VM uses Azure PowerShell commands, with explicit instructions to select PowerShell in Cloud Shell. The resource group and VM naming conventions (e.g., 'SimpleWinVmResourceGroup', 'myVM1') and referenced documentation (Windows username/password requirements) further reinforce a Windows-centric approach. No Bash/Azure CLI examples are provided for Linux/macOS users, and the VM creation steps are tailored to Windows environments.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Azure CLI (Bash) commands for VM and resource group creation, suitable for Linux/macOS users.
  • Mention that Cloud Shell supports both PowerShell and Bash, and offer users a choice.
  • Reference Linux VM documentation and requirements alongside Windows, especially for username/password guidance.
  • Use more neutral resource group and VM names (e.g., 'SimpleVmResourceGroup') to avoid implying Windows-only scenarios.
  • Ensure all critical steps (e.g., VM creation) have cross-platform instructions.
