Summary
The documentation covers both Linux and Windows VM image creation with Azure Image Builder, providing parity in most areas. However, there are several instances where Windows-specific tools (PowerShell, Windows commands) are mentioned first or exclusively, and PowerShell is used for checksum generation and other tasks, while Linux equivalents are sometimes only mentioned later or in passing. Windows examples and customizers (PowerShell, WindowsRestart, WindowsUpdate) are described in more detail, and PowerShell commands are often shown before Azure CLI or Linux shell equivalents.
Recommendations
  • Ensure Linux shell commands (e.g., for checksum generation) are always provided alongside PowerShell equivalents, and shown with equal prominence.
  • Where PowerShell is referenced for validation or customization, provide clear Bash/shell alternatives for Linux users.
  • In sections listing customizer types, avoid listing Windows-specific customizers (PowerShell, WindowsRestart, WindowsUpdate) before Linux equivalents (Shell), or alternate the order.
  • For commands to register features or manage resources, show Azure CLI examples first or equally with PowerShell.
  • Expand Linux-specific troubleshooting and guidance to match the detail provided for Windows (e.g., logs, error messages, customization advice).
