Summary
The documentation exhibits a notable Windows bias. PowerShell and Windows-specific tools (e.g., .exe files, cmd commands) are used exclusively in code examples and instructions. There are no Linux/macOS shell or tool equivalents provided, and Windows patterns (such as referencing .exe files and using cmd) are presented as the default or only option. This could create friction for Linux/macOS users attempting to follow the guide.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent Bash or shell command examples alongside PowerShell, especially for pipeline execution and monitoring.
- Include examples using Linux-compatible executables (e.g., .sh scripts or ELF binaries) in the 'command' property, not just .exe files.
- Clarify that Azure Batch pools can run both Windows and Linux VMs, and provide guidance or links for selecting and configuring Linux pools.
- When referencing commands like 'cmd /c', also show the Linux equivalent (e.g., '/bin/bash -c').
- Explicitly mention cross-platform considerations and any differences in behavior or setup between Windows and Linux Batch pools.
