Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by specifically referencing PowerShell and providing instructions tailored to it (e.g., how to format VM SKU identifiers for use in PowerShell scripts). There are no equivalent examples or explicit mentions of Linux shell scripting or tools. The language and examples prioritize Windows/PowerShell usage, with Linux alternatives either omitted or only referenced generically as 'other scripts.'
Recommendations
  • Include explicit examples for both PowerShell (Windows) and Bash (Linux/macOS) when referencing scripting tasks, such as how to use VM SKU identifiers in deployment scripts.
  • Avoid language that prioritizes Windows tools (e.g., 'PowerShell or Azure CLI scripts'); instead, use neutral phrasing like 'deployment scripts using PowerShell, Bash, or Azure CLI.'
  • Add a note or section demonstrating how to perform equivalent tasks on Linux, such as using Azure CLI in Bash or shell scripts.
  • Where possible, provide cross-platform code snippets or links to platform-specific documentation for both Windows and Linux users.
