Summary
The documentation covers both Windows and Linux VM image creation with Azure Image Builder, and provides parity for most features. However, there is a notable Windows bias in several areas: PowerShell is frequently used for examples (e.g., generating SHA256 checksums, Sysprep commands, image build/cancel operations), Windows customizers (PowerShell, WindowsRestart, WindowsUpdate) are described in more detail and often before Linux equivalents, and Windows-specific tools (Get-FileHash, shutdown, Sysprep) are referenced. Linux examples are present and explained, but Windows tools and patterns are sometimes mentioned first or exclusively (e.g., no Linux restart customizer, PowerShell validator details shown before Shell validator details).
Recommendations
- Provide Linux/macOS equivalents for all PowerShell commands (e.g., show sha256sum before or alongside Get-FileHash).
- Ensure Linux examples are given equal prominence and detail, especially in sections where Windows tools are described.
- Where Windows customizers (e.g., WindowsRestart, WindowsUpdate) are described, clarify Linux alternatives or explicitly state their absence.
- In validation and customization sections, alternate the order of Windows and Linux examples, or present them side-by-side.
- Add explicit notes or links for Linux/macOS users where only Windows tools are referenced (e.g., Sysprep, PowerShell).
