Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Windows terminology and examples. In the VM preparation section, RDP (Windows) is mentioned before SSH (Linux), and the only code sample for pool creation uses a Windows node agent SKU ('batch.node.windows amd64') with no Linux equivalent shown. There are no explicit Linux command-line or configuration examples, and the .NET SDK example is Windows-centric. While Linux is mentioned in passing, practical Linux guidance and parity in examples are lacking.
Recommendations
  • Provide parallel Linux examples wherever Windows-specific instructions or code samples are given (e.g., show both 'batch.node.windows amd64' and a Linux node agent SKU in code).
  • Instruct on connecting to VMs using SSH (Linux) before or alongside RDP (Windows), or present both equally.
  • Include Linux command-line examples (e.g., az CLI, Bash) for creating snapshots, images, and pools, not just general references.
  • Ensure all code samples and configuration snippets demonstrate both Windows and Linux scenarios, including REST and SDK usage.
  • Balance references to Windows and Linux documentation links, and avoid defaulting to Windows-first language or ordering.
