Summary
The documentation demonstrates a notable Windows bias. Windows examples, tools, and terminology are presented first and in greater detail, especially in code samples (Bicep, ARM template, PowerShell). The Bicep and ARM template sections only show Windows VM creation and extension installation, omitting Linux VM equivalents. PowerShell cmdlets and instructions are Windows-centric, with Linux-specific steps or commands either missing or relegated to notes. Folder permissions and requirements are described only for Windows paths, with no Linux equivalents. The Azure CLI and REST API sections mention both Windows and Linux extension types, but do not provide concrete Linux-focused examples.
Recommendations
- Add parallel Linux VM creation and extension installation examples in Bicep and ARM template sections.
- Provide explicit Linux PowerShell/CLI commands for installing and managing the Hybrid Worker extension.
- List Linux folder permission requirements and management steps alongside Windows equivalents.
- Ensure that all code samples and walkthroughs include both Windows and Linux paths/types, or use tabs to separate OS-specific instructions.
- Present Windows and Linux options with equal prominence, avoiding Windows-first ordering.
