Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by using a Windows 11 Pro image as the example for VM creation, without mentioning or showing a Linux-based alternative. The only explicit script-based workflow for copying existing VMs uses PowerShell, with no Linux shell or cross-platform CLI example. While the intro mentions Azure CLI and ARM templates, the step-by-step instructions and screenshots focus solely on the Azure portal and Windows-centric workflows.
Recommendations
- Include parallel examples using a popular Linux image (e.g., Ubuntu) when demonstrating VM creation steps, and note any differences in settings or options.
- When referencing scripts for copying VMs, provide both PowerShell and Bash/Azure CLI examples, or clarify cross-platform alternatives.
- Balance screenshots and walkthroughs to show both Windows and Linux VM creation scenarios.
- Explicitly mention that the process supports both Windows and Linux images, and link to documentation or quickstarts for Linux VMs.
- If artifacts or advanced settings differ for Linux VMs, highlight those differences or provide links to Linux-specific guidance.
