Summary:
The documentation repeatedly references 'B1S Windows virtual machine' as the example for free usage, without mentioning Linux VM options or providing Linux-specific examples. This creates a Windows-first impression and omits guidance for users interested in Linux-based workloads.
Recommendations:
- Include examples that reference both Windows and Linux virtual machines (e.g., 'B1S Windows or Linux virtual machine').
- Explicitly state that Linux VMs are also available within the free tier, and provide usage examples for both operating systems.
- Where possible, alternate between Windows and Linux examples, or present them side-by-side to ensure parity.
- Clarify that the free VM hours can be used for either Windows or Linux images, and link to documentation on creating both types.
