Summary
The documentation demonstrates a notable Windows bias in the 'Install IIS' section, where only Windows PowerShell commands are provided for installing IIS on backend VMs. There are no equivalent instructions for Linux VMs (e.g., using Apache/Nginx with Bash commands). The workflow assumes Windows Server as the default OS for VMs, referencing Windows-specific tools and patterns (PowerShell, IIS), and does not mention Linux alternatives or provide parity in examples. The order and content reinforce Windows as the primary platform, leaving Linux/macOS users without guidance for completing the task.
Recommendations
  • Add a parallel section for Linux VM setup, showing how to install and configure a web server (e.g., Apache or Nginx) using Bash commands.
  • Provide example commands for both Windows (PowerShell/IIS) and Linux (Bash/Apache/Nginx) when configuring backend servers.
  • Explicitly state that the instructions are for Windows VMs and offer links or inline instructions for Linux VM scenarios.
  • Ensure screenshots and walkthroughs include both Windows and Linux VM options.
  • Mention cross-platform considerations in the prerequisites and setup sections.
