windows_tools
Summary:
The documentation provides both Linux and Windows information, but there is a noticeable Windows bias in several areas. Windows examples and tools (such as PowerShell and Remote Desktop) are mentioned explicitly, and the first detailed example is for Windows. The Linux example is less detailed and lacks command-line specifics. Windows-specific tools and patterns (e.g., PowerShell, RDP, Microsoft MPI) are referenced directly, while Linux equivalents are not always provided or are less prominent.
Recommendations:
- Ensure Linux and Windows examples are given equal detail and prominence. For each Windows example, provide a Linux equivalent with step-by-step commands.
- When referencing Windows tools (e.g., PowerShell, RDP), also mention and provide instructions for Linux alternatives (e.g., SSH, Bash scripts, OpenMPI).
- Alternate the order of Linux and Windows examples or present them side-by-side to avoid always listing Windows first.
- Provide explicit Linux command-line examples for tasks such as installing drivers, configuring pools, and deploying images.
- Where possible, use cross-platform tools or highlight them, and clarify when a tool is Windows-only.
- Review the 'Next steps' section to ensure Linux resources are as current and accessible as Windows ones.
