powershell_heavy

missing_linux_example
Summary:
While the documentation claims support for both Windows and Linux, there is a subtle Windows bias. Windows terminology (e.g., PowerShell) is often mentioned first, and explicit step-by-step examples or scripts for Windows (such as PowerShell installation) are referenced, while equivalent Linux command-line examples are less prominent or missing. The Linux-specific setup is mostly relegated to the log forwarder scenario, and there are no detailed Linux installation or configuration walkthroughs for the agent itself. In several places, Windows tools or patterns are mentioned before Linux equivalents.
Recommendations:
- Provide explicit Linux command-line examples (e.g., shell commands for installing the Azure Monitor Agent on Linux, not just PowerShell for Windows).
- Ensure that for every Windows example or tool mentioned (such as PowerShell), an equivalent Linux example (such as Bash or shell commands) is provided and given equal prominence.
- In lists or instructions, alternate the order or present both Windows and Linux options side by side, rather than defaulting to Windows-first.
- Add screenshots or walkthroughs of the Linux experience where applicable (e.g., installing the agent, configuring data collection rules via CLI on Linux).
- Clarify in each section whether the instructions apply to both Windows and Linux, and avoid assuming Windows as the default environment.
