Summary
The documentation shows mild Windows bias, with Windows examples and tools (PowerShell DSC) mentioned before Linux equivalents, and links to Windows-specific configuration guides. While Linux is supported and referenced (including Chef InSpec and PowerShell DSC v3 for Linux), Windows tools and patterns are often listed first, and some links (e.g., managed identity configuration) point to Windows VM-specific instructions without clear Linux alternatives.
Recommendations
- Ensure Linux and macOS instructions are presented alongside or before Windows examples, especially for common tasks like managed identity configuration.
- Provide explicit links and examples for configuring managed identities and extensions on Linux VMs, not just Windows VMs.
- Clarify the use of validation tools for Linux, including PowerShell DSC v3 and Chef InSpec, with step-by-step Linux-specific setup instructions.
- Where possible, avoid listing Windows tools first in tables or sections; alternate or group by OS.
- Add references to macOS support or limitations if relevant.
