windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by focusing exclusively on deploying Windows-based Batch nodes, using Windows-specific application packages (Windows 64-bit FFmpeg), and providing ARM template examples that only reference Windows VM images. There are no Linux-based deployment examples, no Linux application package instructions, and the agent pool specification defaults to 'windows-latest' without mentioning Linux alternatives. While a note acknowledges Linux support, no practical guidance or parity is provided for Linux users.
Recommendations:
- Provide parallel Linux-based examples throughout the documentation, including ARM templates for Linux pools (e.g., using Ubuntu or CentOS images) and Linux application packages.
- Include instructions for downloading and packaging the Linux version of FFmpeg, and demonstrate how to upload and deploy it to Linux Batch nodes.
- Show how to set up the agent pool using 'ubuntu-latest' or another Linux agent in Azure Pipelines, and discuss any differences in pipeline tasks or scripts.
- Add screenshots and YAML snippets that illustrate Linux-specific configurations where appropriate.
- Explicitly mention and demonstrate the use of cross-platform tools (e.g., Bash scripts) in addition to or instead of PowerShell Core, especially in Azure CLI tasks.
- Ensure that all steps, from repository structure to deployment and testing, have Linux equivalents or clear cross-platform guidance.
