Extended Zones

The documentation provides only a Windows Server deployment example and does not mention or demonstrate how to deploy a Linux VM in an Extended Zone. The sole VM creation example uses a Windows image, and there is no reference to Linux images or their usage, which may lead users to perceive Windows as the default or preferred platform.

• Add a Linux VM deployment example alongside the Windows example, such as using Ubuntu or CentOS images.
• Explicitly mention that both Windows and Linux images are supported and provide guidance on selecting Linux images.
• Ensure that instructions and code samples are platform-neutral or include both Windows and Linux options where relevant.
• Clarify that Azure CLI commands work equally well for deploying Linux VMs and provide links to Linux image references.

The documentation exclusively uses the Azure Portal (web UI) for all instructions and does not provide any command-line examples (such as Azure CLI or PowerShell). While this avoids explicit Windows-only tooling, it implicitly favors Windows users by omitting Linux-friendly CLI workflows, which are common in Linux environments and automation. There is also no mention of how to perform these tasks via command line, which is often preferred by Linux users.

• Add Azure CLI examples for all major steps (e.g., creating the resource group, deploying the AKS cluster, cleaning up resources).
• If PowerShell examples are added, ensure Azure CLI (cross-platform) examples are provided first or alongside.
• Explicitly mention that the Azure CLI can be used on Windows, Linux, and macOS, and provide installation links.
• Include a section or links for automating these tasks via scripts for both Linux and Windows users.
