Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by providing only PowerShell examples for retrieving VM sizes, referencing Windows-centric tools (PowerShell, Visual Studio), and omitting equivalent Linux/CLI/bash examples. The deployment options also list PowerShell and Visual Studio before mentioning templates, with no mention of Azure CLI or Linux-native workflows.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent Azure CLI (az) and/or Bash examples alongside PowerShell scripts for listing available VM sizes.
- Explicitly mention and provide examples for Linux users, such as using Azure CLI on Linux or macOS.
- In the 'Next steps' section, list cross-platform tools (e.g., Azure CLI, ARM/Bicep templates) before or alongside Windows-specific tools like PowerShell and Visual Studio.
- Where possible, clarify that the service definition file and deployment process are OS-agnostic, and provide links to Linux/macOS documentation if available.
- Consider including a table or section that maps common Windows tools/workflows to their Linux equivalents for Azure Cloud Services (extended support).
