Summary
The documentation exhibits a notable Windows bias. It exclusively demonstrates creating Batch pools with Windows Server images, uses Windows command-line tools (cmd /c type), and provides examples and code snippets that assume Windows environments. There are no Linux pool creation examples, nor any Linux command-line equivalents or cross-platform task instructions. Visual Studio is mentioned as the primary IDE, with only brief mention of .NET CLI for Linux. This bias may hinder Linux/macOS users from following the quickstart or adapting it to their platforms.
Recommendations
  • Add examples for creating Batch pools with Linux VM images, including the necessary configuration changes in code.
  • Provide Linux/macOS command-line equivalents for task execution (e.g., use 'cat' instead of 'type').
  • Show how to modify the app to run on Linux nodes, including changes to the command line and image reference.
  • Present cross-platform instructions and highlight any platform-specific steps or requirements.
  • Include screenshots or instructions for using .NET CLI and editors available on Linux/macOS, such as VS Code.
