Summary
The documentation provides both Windows and Linux parity in terms of supported OS images and configuration methods (REST API, Azure CLI, PowerShell, ARM templates, Bicep). However, there are signs of Windows bias: PowerShell examples are given before CLI, ARM/Bicep template defaults use Windows images, and configuration notes often reference Windows-specific properties (e.g., enableAutomaticUpdates, drive letters) without equivalent Linux notes. Windows terminology and tools (PowerShell, Windows Update) are referenced more frequently and sometimes exclusively in requirements and troubleshooting sections.
Recommendations
- Alternate the order of PowerShell and CLI examples, or present CLI first to better serve Linux/macOS users.
- In ARM/Bicep template examples, provide Linux image defaults alongside Windows defaults.
- Add Linux-specific configuration notes where relevant (e.g., handling device naming, custom boot scripts for Linux).
- Clarify that PowerShell is Windows-specific and recommend Azure CLI for cross-platform use.
- Ensure troubleshooting and requirements sections include Linux equivalents (e.g., how Linux handles disk reattachment, patching, and health probes).
