windows_first
Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by primarily referencing PowerShell and Windows-centric tools (such as PowerShell Az.Resource module and SQL Server), providing no explicit Linux/bash/CLI examples, and mentioning Windows tools and patterns before any cross-platform or Linux alternatives. There is a lack of parity in scripting and tooling guidance for Linux users.
Recommendations:
- Add equivalent Azure CLI (az) examples for exporting DevTest Labs usage, alongside or before PowerShell examples.
- Include bash script samples for automation scenarios, especially for exporting and processing usage data.
- Mention cross-platform storage and visualization tools (e.g., PostgreSQL, Grafana, or open-source alternatives) alongside SQL Server and Power BI.
- Explicitly state that Azure Functions and Azure Automation support multiple languages (including Python and bash), and provide sample code in at least one non-Windows language.
- Balance the order of tool and example presentation so that Linux-friendly and cross-platform options are not always listed after Windows-centric ones.
