Summary:
The documentation mentions PuTTYGen (a Windows SSH key generator) as an option for generating SSH keys, and lists it before mentioning Linux/OS X alternatives. There are no explicit Linux command examples or references to Linux tools beyond a brief mention of ssh-keygen. The focus on Azure portal UI and lack of CLI or Linux shell examples further centers the documentation around Windows-centric workflows.
Recommendations:
- When listing SSH key generation tools, mention cross-platform tools first (e.g., 'You can generate SSH keys using ssh-keygen on Linux, macOS, or Windows, or PuTTYGen on Windows').
- Provide explicit Linux and macOS command-line examples for generating SSH keys (e.g., 'ssh-keygen -t rsa -b 4096').
- Include Azure CLI or shell-based provisioning steps alongside portal instructions to support Linux users.
- Avoid listing Windows-specific tools before cross-platform or Linux-native tools.
- Consider adding a section or callout for Linux/macOS users to ensure parity in instructions.
