Summary
The documentation page shows mild Windows bias. The only command-line tool mentioned for lab management is the Az.LabServices PowerShell module, with no mention of Azure CLI or Bash alternatives for Linux/macOS users. Additionally, the note about PowerShell appears before any mention of cross-platform tools, and screenshots and instructions implicitly assume a Windows-centric workflow (e.g., remote desktop for Linux is described as 'extra setup'). However, the main workflow is web-based and accessible from any OS, so Linux/macOS users are not blocked.
Recommendations
- Include Azure CLI examples for lab management tasks alongside PowerShell, highlighting cross-platform compatibility.
- Explicitly mention that the Az.LabServices PowerShell module can be used on macOS/Linux via PowerShell Core, or provide Bash/CLI alternatives.
- Add Linux/macOS-specific notes or screenshots where workflows differ (e.g., SSH connections to Linux VMs).
- List cross-platform tools before or alongside Windows-specific tools in the documentation.
