Summary
The documentation page exhibits a notable Windows bias: all deployment and management commands are shown using PowerShell, even for Linux VMs. Windows-specific paths and tools are referenced first and exclusively (e.g., output directories, command-line examples). Linux instructions are present but still use PowerShell for deployment, and Linux-native tools or CLI examples are missing. The documentation assumes the user is operating from a Windows environment, which creates friction for Linux/macOS users.
Recommendations
  • Provide Azure CLI examples for all deployment, tracking, and removal operations, as Azure CLI is cross-platform and preferred by many Linux/macOS users.
  • Show Linux-native shell commands (bash) for verifying file creation and extension status on Linux VMs.
  • Include Linux/macOS file paths and output locations in parallel with Windows paths.
  • Reorder sections so that Linux instructions/examples are presented alongside or before Windows ones, or clearly separate them.
  • Explicitly state that PowerShell examples can be run on Linux/macOS using PowerShell Core, or provide alternatives.
