Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a notable Windows bias. The instructions for connecting to the VM and accessing the SQL Database are exclusively Windows-centric, relying on RDP and PowerShell, with no mention of Linux/macOS alternatives (e.g., SSH, Bash, or cross-platform SQL clients). Windows tools and patterns (RDP, PowerShell, SQL Server Management Studio) are presented as the default and only options, leaving Linux/macOS users without clear guidance for completing the quickstart.
Recommendations
  • Add instructions for connecting to the VM using SSH, which is the standard method for Linux/macOS users.
  • Provide examples for running deployment commands in Bash (Azure CLI) and clarify that Azure CLI works cross-platform.
  • Suggest cross-platform SQL clients (e.g., Azure Data Studio, sqlcmd) for accessing the SQL Database from the VM.
  • Include notes or tabs for Linux/macOS users in all relevant sections, especially for remote access and command-line operations.
  • Explicitly mention that the VM can be deployed with Linux images and provide equivalent steps for those scenarios.
