Summary
The documentation is heavily biased toward Windows. All examples, scripts, and template resources focus exclusively on deploying and configuring a Windows VM using PowerShell and Windows-specific tools (e.g., Install-WindowsFeature, powershell.exe). There are no Linux VM examples, nor any mention of Linux equivalents such as Bash scripts or Linux extensions. The tutorial title and steps do not clarify that it is Windows-only, and Linux users are left without guidance for completing similar tasks.
Recommendations
- Add parallel examples for deploying and configuring Linux VMs, including use of Custom Script Extension with Bash scripts.
- Include links to Linux VM extension documentation and quickstart templates (e.g., 'Deploy a simple Linux VM').
- Show both PowerShell and Bash script examples for password generation, script execution, and resource cleanup.
- Clarify in the introduction that the tutorial focuses on Windows, and provide a link or section for Linux users.
- Demonstrate how to install a web server (e.g., Apache or Nginx) on Linux VMs using ARM templates and extensions.
