Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a subtle Windows bias. While it covers both Windows and Linux in the artifact parameters table, Windows terminology and patterns (e.g., 'Administrators group', 'Microsoft IaaSAntimalware extension for Windows servers') are more prominent and detailed. Windows-specific parameters are listed before Linux equivalents in several places, and there are no explicit Linux command-line or management examples. The documentation assumes a GUI-based workflow, which is more common for Windows users, and does not provide CLI or automation guidance that would be familiar to Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Linux examples and explanations wherever Windows-specific terms or parameters are used (e.g., explain Linux admin group management alongside Windows Administrators group).
  • Ensure Linux-related parameters and artifacts are given equal prominence and detail as Windows ones in tables and descriptions.
  • Include CLI-based deployment instructions (using Azure CLI, Bash, or PowerShell Core cross-platform) in addition to GUI steps, to support Linux-first and automation-focused users.
  • Where Windows tools or extensions are mentioned (e.g., Microsoft IaaSAntimalware), mention Linux alternatives or clarify if there is no equivalent.
  • Review the order of presentation in tables and lists to avoid consistently listing Windows before Linux, which can reinforce a Windows-first perception.
