Summary
The documentation is intended for both Linux and Windows VMs, but consistently uses Windows VM images (e.g., Win2016Datacenter) in all CLI and PowerShell examples, and does not provide equivalent Linux image examples or instructions. This creates friction for Linux users, who must infer the correct Linux image and adapt the commands themselves. Additionally, references to Windows quickstart documentation are given first, and Linux-specific guidance is missing.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux VM image examples (e.g., UbuntuLTS, CentOS) alongside Windows examples in all CLI and PowerShell code snippets.
  • Add links to Linux VM quickstart documentation where Windows quickstart links are provided.
  • Explicitly state that the instructions apply to both Linux and Windows, and clarify any OS-specific steps if needed.
  • Where variables are set for VM image, recommend both Windows and Linux values.
  • Ensure screenshots and portal instructions mention Linux VM deployment as well.
