Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a mild Windows bias. While it mentions both Windows and Linux as supported OS types for VM images, it provides a prerequisite link that points to a Windows-specific tab (azcopy instructions), and does not provide any Linux-specific examples or guidance. There are no command-line examples (PowerShell, Bash, etc.), but where OS is mentioned, Windows is listed first. The documentation does not mention Linux tools or workflows, nor does it provide parity in example coverage for Linux users.
Recommendations:
- Ensure that prerequisite links and referenced guides provide both Windows and Linux instructions, or default to a neutral landing page.
- Where OS types are listed (e.g., 'Specify the OS associated with the image in your Storage account, either Windows or Linux'), alternate the order or explicitly state that both are equally supported.
- Add explicit Linux examples or screenshots where relevant, especially for steps involving uploading VHDs or interacting with Azure tools.
- If command-line tools are referenced (such as AzCopy), provide both Windows and Linux usage examples.
- Review linked documentation (e.g., 'Upload a VHD image in your Azure Storage account') to ensure Linux parity and cross-link to Linux-specific instructions if available.
