Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a subtle Windows bias. The 'Next steps' section links only to the Windows-specific Azure Instance Metadata Service documentation, with no mention or link to the Linux equivalent. There are no code examples, but the reference to Windows documentation without Linux parity suggests a preference or assumption of Windows usage.
Recommendations
- Include links to both Windows and Linux versions of the Azure Instance Metadata Service documentation in the 'Next steps' section.
- Explicitly mention that the IMDS REST API is platform-agnostic and provide examples or references for both Windows (e.g., PowerShell, CMD) and Linux (e.g., curl, bash) usage where appropriate.
- Ensure that troubleshooting and usage guides are inclusive of both Windows and Linux environments.
