Summary
The documentation is focused on Linux VM extensions, but consistently presents both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell examples for all tasks. PowerShell is a Windows-centric tool, and its inclusion alongside CLI in every section may create friction for Linux users. Additionally, in several sections, PowerShell examples are given immediately after CLI, sometimes with more detailed output, which may subtly reinforce Windows tooling. However, all examples and explanations are applicable to Linux VMs, and Linux-specific tools (bash, waagent) are referenced where relevant.
Recommendations
  • Consider prioritizing Azure CLI examples, as CLI is cross-platform and native to Linux/macOS.
  • Move PowerShell examples to a secondary position or into expandable sections, so Linux users see CLI first.
  • Clarify that PowerShell is optional and primarily for users on Windows or those who prefer it.
  • Add explicit notes or links for Linux-native scripting and automation (bash, shell scripts) where relevant.
  • Ensure that troubleshooting and log file references use Linux paths and conventions, as is mostly done.
