Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by providing only Azure PowerShell deployment instructions and code samples, with no equivalent Azure CLI (cross-platform) or Bash examples. The walkthrough assumes the use of PowerShell and references Internet Information Services (IIS), a Windows web server, as the default application. There is no mention of Linux-based deployment or tools, and Linux users are not given parity in guidance or examples.
Recommendations:
- Add Azure CLI (az) and Bash examples for deploying the ARM template, alongside the PowerShell instructions.
- Include Linux-based web server examples (e.g., Apache or Nginx) in the template and testing steps, or provide parallel instructions for both Windows and Linux VMs.
- Explicitly mention that the steps are cross-platform where possible, and clarify when a step is Windows-specific.
- Reorder or supplement the instructions so that cross-platform (CLI) methods are presented before or alongside Windows-specific (PowerShell) methods.
- Provide screenshots or output examples from both Windows and Linux environments to ensure inclusivity.
