Summary
The documentation is focused on Linux VM extensions, but consistently presents both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell examples side-by-side. In several sections, PowerShell examples are given equal prominence to CLI, despite PowerShell being primarily a Windows-centric tool. In some cases, PowerShell examples are shown before or alongside CLI, which may create friction for Linux users. However, all examples and guidance are applicable to Linux, and Linux-specific tools (Azure CLI, Bash, waagent) are well represented.
Recommendations
  • Consider presenting Azure CLI examples first in each section, as CLI is the primary cross-platform tool for Linux users.
  • Clearly indicate that PowerShell is optional and primarily for users on Windows or those who have installed PowerShell Core on Linux.
  • Add explicit notes or guidance for Linux users about the recommended tooling (Azure CLI, Bash) and clarify PowerShell's cross-platform status.
  • Where possible, minimize PowerShell examples or move them to secondary tabs/sections for Linux-focused documentation.
  • Ensure that troubleshooting and operational guidance always includes Bash/CLI commands as the default for Linux.
