Summary
The documentation provides configuration instructions for VM vCore Customization using the Azure portal, Azure CLI, PowerShell, and ARM templates. While the CLI and ARM template examples are cross-platform, the PowerShell section is Windows-specific and is presented before any Linux/macOS shell alternatives (such as Bash or shell scripting). The CLI example uses Ubuntu as the image, but the PowerShell example is given equal prominence, which may create minor friction for Linux/macOS users. There are no Linux-specific shell examples (e.g., Bash), and PowerShell is referenced as a primary automation tool, which is more common on Windows.
Recommendations
  • Add Bash or shell script examples for Linux/macOS users alongside PowerShell, especially for automation scenarios.
  • Explicitly mention that Azure CLI is cross-platform and preferred for Linux/macOS users, while PowerShell is primarily for Windows.
  • Consider reordering examples to present CLI and ARM template options before PowerShell, or group platform-specific tools clearly.
  • Clarify in the PowerShell section that it is intended for Windows users, and suggest alternatives for Linux/macOS.
