Summary
The tutorial demonstrates a clear Windows bias by exclusively using Windows Server images for virtual machines and providing only Windows PowerShell commands for configuring IIS. There are no instructions or examples for deploying or configuring Linux VMs, nor are there Bash or Linux-native commands for installing a web server. The documentation assumes a Windows environment for demonstration and testing, omitting Linux alternatives.
Recommendations
  • Provide parallel instructions for creating Linux-based VMs (e.g., Ubuntu) alongside Windows VMs.
  • Include Bash or shell commands for installing and configuring a web server (such as Apache or Nginx) on Linux VMs.
  • Offer both Windows and Linux examples for all configuration and testing steps, including web server setup and verification.
  • Explicitly mention that the tutorial applies to both Windows and Linux environments, and guide users on how to choose the appropriate OS image.
  • Where PowerShell is used, provide equivalent Bash commands for Linux users.
  • Add a section or callout highlighting cross-platform considerations and links to relevant Linux documentation.
