Summary
The documentation is focused on Linux VMs, with all technical instructions, examples, and requirements tailored for Linux distributions. However, in several places, Azure PowerShell is mentioned alongside Azure CLI as a management tool for Linux VMs, and PowerShell examples/scripts are referenced equally with CLI ones. In the 'Next steps' section and introductory guidance, PowerShell is listed after CLI, but its inclusion may cause minor confusion for Linux users, since PowerShell is less commonly used on Linux compared to CLI/bash. No Windows-specific tools, patterns, or examples are prioritized or exclusively presented.
Recommendations
  • Clarify that Azure PowerShell is cross-platform and can be used on Linux, but Azure CLI is generally preferred for Linux VM management.
  • Consider providing guidance on installing and using PowerShell on Linux, or explicitly recommend Azure CLI as the default for Linux users.
  • Ensure that PowerShell references are not presented as primary or default for Linux scenarios, and that CLI/bash examples are always shown first.
  • If PowerShell scripts are referenced, add a note about their Linux compatibility and any prerequisites.
