Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias in several areas. Windows is the default and only example for VM image selection, with explicit instructions for enabling ICMP using Windows PowerShell cmdlets. There are no equivalent Linux/macOS instructions for firewall configuration or VM image selection, and Windows terminology (RDP, PowerShell) is used first and exclusively in critical steps.
Recommendations
  • Include explicit Linux VM image selection steps and mention Linux images as equally valid options.
  • Provide Linux/macOS firewall configuration instructions (e.g., using ufw or firewalld) for enabling ICMP.
  • Offer SSH connection instructions and examples for Linux/macOS users, not just RDP for Windows.
  • Present both Windows and Linux examples side by side, or clearly indicate when steps differ by OS.
  • Avoid assuming Windows as the default; use neutral language and highlight cross-platform support.
