Summary
The documentation provides both Windows and Linux applicability and covers general Azure Compute Gallery concepts. However, there is a notable Windows bias in several areas: PowerShell examples and references are frequently shown alongside or before CLI equivalents, and some links and examples (e.g., uploading VHDs, creating specialized images) reference Windows documentation first or exclusively. Linux equivalents are sometimes mentioned, but not always with equal detail or prominence. There are also references to Windows-specific tools (Sysprep) before Linux equivalents (waagent), and some example links default to Windows pages.
Recommendations
  • Ensure that all example commands (especially PowerShell and CLI) are presented with equal prominence, ideally side-by-side or in clearly labeled tabs.
  • Where links are provided for Windows-specific tasks (e.g., uploading VHDs, creating specialized images), ensure Linux equivalents are equally visible and detailed.
  • Avoid referencing Windows tools or documentation before Linux equivalents unless there is a technical reason.
  • Add more Linux-focused examples and links where only Windows examples are currently present.
  • Review FAQ and troubleshooting sections to ensure Linux scenarios are covered as thoroughly as Windows ones.
