Summary
The documentation page shows a moderate Windows bias. Windows tools (PowerShell) are frequently mentioned and often listed before cross-platform alternatives (Azure CLI). Examples for manual scaling are given for Azure Portal, Azure CLI, and Azure PowerShell, but there is no explicit Linux shell example (e.g., Bash). In the 'Next steps' and other sections, PowerShell is often listed first or exclusively, and links to PowerShell-centric management guides are provided. While Azure CLI is cross-platform, the documentation does not provide parity for Linux/macOS users in terms of command-line examples or tool recommendations.
Recommendations
- Provide explicit Bash/Linux shell examples alongside PowerShell, especially for common tasks.
- Ensure Azure CLI examples are shown before or alongside PowerShell examples to emphasize cross-platform support.
- Add links to Linux/macOS management guides for Virtual Machine Scale Sets.
- Clarify that Azure CLI works on Linux/macOS and highlight any OS-specific considerations.
- Balance references to Windows tools (PowerShell) with equivalent Linux/macOS tools or workflows.
