Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows and PowerShell. All examples use Azure PowerShell cmdlets, with no mention of Azure CLI, Bash, or Linux/macOS workflows. VM creation is shown only for Windows Server images, and RDP (Windows remote desktop) is the only access method described. There is no guidance for Linux users or parity in example commands, making it difficult for non-Windows users to follow the instructions.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent Azure CLI examples for all major steps, including resource group, network, load balancer, NIC, and VM creation.
- Include Linux VM deployment examples alongside Windows VM examples, and show SSH access configuration.
- Mention that Azure PowerShell can be used cross-platform, but clarify how Linux/macOS users can install and run it, or recommend Azure CLI as an alternative.
- Reorder or parallelize examples so that Linux and Windows instructions are presented together, rather than Windows-only.
- Add notes or links to Linux/macOS documentation for common tasks (e.g., connecting to VMs, managing resources).
