Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and PowerShell examples for creating VMs from specialized images. However, PowerShell examples are significantly more verbose and detailed, including full network setup and VM configuration, while CLI examples are concise and focus only on the core VM creation steps. PowerShell is a Windows-centric tool, and its prominence and detail may create friction for Linux/macOS users. Additionally, PowerShell examples are often presented immediately after CLI, suggesting a Windows-first approach. No Linux-specific tools (e.g., Bash scripts) or macOS guidance are provided, but Azure CLI is cross-platform.
Recommendations
  • Provide equally detailed Azure CLI examples, including network setup and VM configuration, to match the depth of PowerShell examples.
  • Explicitly mention that Azure CLI is cross-platform and suitable for Linux/macOS users.
  • Consider including Bash shell script examples for Linux users, especially for more complex scenarios.
  • Clarify that PowerShell examples are primarily for Windows users, and encourage Linux/macOS users to use Azure CLI.
