Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and PowerShell examples for creating VMs from specialized images, but the PowerShell examples are significantly more detailed and complex, including full network setup and VM configuration, while the CLI examples are minimal. PowerShell is a Windows-centric tool, and there are no equivalent Bash or Linux shell scripting examples for users who prefer Linux-native automation. Additionally, in several sections, PowerShell examples are presented before CLI, and the CLI examples lack parity in terms of completeness and depth. There are no references to Linux-specific tools or workflows beyond the CLI, and the documentation does not address Linux/macOS users who may wish to automate these tasks outside of PowerShell.
Recommendations
- Provide full Bash/Linux shell script examples that match the depth and completeness of the PowerShell examples, including network resource creation and VM configuration.
- Ensure CLI examples are as detailed as PowerShell examples, covering all necessary steps for both Windows and Linux users.
- Explicitly mention that PowerShell is available cross-platform, but also offer native Linux automation alternatives (e.g., Bash scripts, use of Azure CLI in Linux environments).
- Alternate the order of CLI and PowerShell examples, or present CLI first to reduce Windows-first perception.
- Add notes or links for Linux/macOS users on best practices for scripting and automation in those environments.
