Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing Windows virtual machines and tools before or instead of Linux equivalents. The only direct link to VM documentation is for Windows VMs, and examples of artifacts mention Windows-specific tools like Visual Studio and Fiddler, with no mention of Linux tools or distributions. There are no Linux-specific examples, links, or references, and the documentation does not clarify that Linux VMs and artifacts are equally supported.
Recommendations
  • Include references and links to both Windows and Linux VM documentation (e.g., add a link to 'Linux virtual machines in Azure').
  • Provide examples of artifacts and tools relevant to Linux environments (e.g., Git, Apache, NGINX, or other common Linux software).
  • Explicitly state that DevTest Labs supports both Windows and Linux VMs, and provide parity in examples and explanations.
  • When listing base images or custom images, mention both Windows and Linux options.
  • Ensure that any step-by-step guides or referenced templates include Linux scenarios alongside Windows ones.
