Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively listing Microsoft and Windows-centric developer tools (e.g., Visual Studio, Hyper-V, Windows Server, SQL Server, Visio, etc.) and by referencing Windows 10/11 virtual machines as a specific benefit. There are no mentions of Linux-based tools, distributions, or examples, nor are there instructions or guidance for Linux users. The product lists and benefits focus on Windows technologies, and even when cross-platform tools like Visual Studio Code are mentioned, there is no explicit mention of Linux compatibility or usage.
Recommendations
  • Include Linux-based developer tools or explicitly mention support for Linux distributions where applicable (e.g., Ubuntu, CentOS).
  • Provide examples or guidance for deploying Linux virtual machines alongside Windows VMs.
  • List open-source or cross-platform alternatives in the product lists, and clarify which tools are available for Linux.
  • Add instructions or links for Linux users on how to access, install, or use the provided software.
  • Ensure parity in documentation by referencing both Windows and Linux environments where relevant, especially in sections about software downloads, VM deployment, and developer tooling.
