Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively using Windows Server virtual machines for all examples, providing only PowerShell commands for VM configuration (IIS installation), and omitting any Linux-based VM or CLI (Bash/Azure CLI) examples. The workflow for deploying and configuring resources is tailored to Windows administrators, with no mention of Linux alternatives or parity in tooling.
Recommendations:
- Provide parallel examples for deploying and configuring Linux-based virtual machines (e.g., Ubuntu) in both the spoke and on-premises roles.
- Include Azure CLI (Bash) commands alongside PowerShell for resource creation and configuration, especially for tasks like installing web servers (e.g., using apt and nginx or apache2).
- Demonstrate how to test connectivity using Linux tools (e.g., curl, ssh) in addition to Windows tools (RDP, browser).
- When referencing VM extensions or scripts, show both PowerShell and Bash/CLI equivalents for installing and configuring software.
- Explicitly mention that the tutorial is applicable to both Windows and Linux environments, and provide guidance for users who prefer or require Linux-based solutions.
