Summary
The documentation is heavily biased toward Windows. All examples, scripts, and templates target Windows VMs, specifically using PowerShell and Windows-specific tools (e.g., Install-WindowsFeature). There are no Linux VM examples, nor any mention of Linux equivalents (such as Bash scripts or Linux extensions). The tutorial assumes the user is deploying a Windows VM and does not provide guidance for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Add parallel examples for deploying VM extensions to Linux VMs, using Bash or shell scripts.
  • Include ARM template snippets for Custom Script Extension on Linux, with sample Bash scripts (e.g., installing Apache or Nginx).
  • Provide links to both Windows and Linux extension documentation.
  • Explicitly mention that the tutorial is Windows-specific, or restructure to offer both Windows and Linux paths.
  • Show how to retrieve the public IP address using Azure CLI or Bash for Linux users.
