Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows-first bias. Most examples and explanations focus on Windows virtual machines, especially for idle detection and automatic disconnect features, which are described as Windows-only. Linux support is mentioned only as an exception or limitation, with no equivalent Linux-specific instructions or examples. The 'Next steps' section highlights PowerShell (a Windows-centric tool) for lab management, without mentioning cross-platform or Linux-native alternatives.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux-specific examples and instructions where features are supported (e.g., how idle detection or shutdown works on Linux VMs).
  • Clarify feature parity and limitations for Linux VMs up front, and offer workarounds or alternatives if possible.
  • Include CLI (az cli) or REST API examples for lab management, which are cross-platform, alongside or instead of PowerShell.
  • Ensure that Linux tools and workflows are presented with equal prominence to Windows/PowerShell options.
  • Add screenshots or terminal output relevant to Linux scenarios where applicable.
