Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing Windows client operating systems and Windows-specific tools (e.g., Visual Studio, MSDN, Windows 10/8.1) in the Azure DevTest Labs proof of concept process. There is a notable absence of Linux-specific examples, tools, or guidance, and Windows is mentioned first and more frequently in subscription and OS discussions. No Linux scenarios or equivalent subscription/OS guidance are provided.
Recommendations:
- Include explicit examples and guidance for deploying and managing Linux VMs in Azure DevTest Labs, such as referencing popular Linux distributions and their use cases.
- Mention Linux-compatible subscription options and clarify how Linux users can leverage DevTest Labs, including any cost or licensing differences.
- Provide parity in tooling recommendations, such as mentioning GitHub, GitLab, or other cross-platform collaboration tools alongside Azure Repos and Visual Studio.
- When discussing remote access, include Linux-specific methods (e.g., SSH from Linux/macOS terminals) and highlight any differences in setup.
- Balance references to Windows and Linux throughout the documentation, ensuring that Linux is not omitted or always mentioned second.
- Add Linux-focused proof-of-concept plan examples or case studies to illustrate cross-platform support.
