Summary
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. Windows-specific tools (e.g., PowerShell, Windows file paths, and VM agent troubleshooting) are mentioned explicitly and often before or in more detail than their Linux equivalents. Some instructions and troubleshooting steps are more detailed for Windows, and in some cases, Linux examples or commands are missing or less emphasized. The documentation references PowerShell and Windows tools prominently, sometimes without providing equivalent Linux/CLI alternatives or giving them equal prominence.
Recommendations
  • Ensure that all examples and instructions are provided for both Windows and Linux platforms, with equal detail and visibility.
  • When referencing tools or interfaces (e.g., PowerShell), always mention and provide examples for Azure CLI and Bash/shell scripts for Linux users.
  • List Linux and Windows options in parallel, rather than mentioning Windows first or in more detail.
  • For file paths, always provide both Windows and Linux paths together.
  • In troubleshooting sections, ensure that Linux and Windows solutions are equally detailed, and that links to Linux-specific troubleshooting guides are as prominent as those for Windows.
  • Avoid language that implies Windows is the default or primary platform; treat both platforms as first-class citizens.
