Summary:
The documentation demonstrates a Windows-first bias by presenting Windows SKU availability before Linux, providing Azure PowerShell automation examples (which are Windows-centric), and referencing Windows-specific behaviors and limitations. There are no Linux shell scripting examples (e.g., Bash), and PowerShell is highlighted as a primary automation tool, which may not be familiar or available on all Linux environments. The documentation also refers to the Azure portal UI without clarifying any platform differences, and does not provide parity in Linux-native automation or troubleshooting approaches.
Recommendations:
- Present Linux and Windows options in parallel, or alternate which comes first to avoid implicit prioritization.
- Add Bash shell scripting examples for automating tasks, alongside PowerShell, to support Linux users.
- Clarify any platform-specific differences in the Azure portal UI, if applicable.
- Explicitly mention cross-platform compatibility for CLI and scripting tools.
- Where PowerShell is referenced, note that it is available cross-platform, but provide native Bash alternatives for Linux users.
- Ensure troubleshooting and error-handling guidance is not Windows-specific and includes Linux scenarios.
