Summary
The documentation page exhibits a moderate Windows bias. Windows Server is the only OS mentioned in quickstart examples, and PowerShell is heavily featured for automation tasks, with multiple links to PowerShell-specific guides and scripts. There are no explicit Linux VM deployment examples, nor references to Linux-specific scripting or tools. Azure CLI is mentioned, but PowerShell instructions and links are more prominent and detailed.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Linux VM deployment examples alongside Windows examples, especially in quickstart sections.
  • Include links to Linux shell (bash) scripts and automation guides in addition to PowerShell resources.
  • Ensure parity in instructions for Azure CLI and PowerShell, giving equal detail and prominence.
  • Reference Linux-compatible tools and workflows (e.g., Bash, cloud-init) where appropriate.
  • Clarify that ARM templates can deploy both Windows and Linux VMs, and provide sample templates for each.
