Summary
The documentation generally maintains parity between Windows and Linux, but there are subtle signs of Windows bias. Windows tools (PowerShell) are mentioned before Linux equivalents (Azure CLI), and troubleshooting guidance for Windows VM extensions is called out before Linux. In some sections, Windows examples or terminology appear first, which may create a perception of Windows being the primary platform.
Recommendations
- Alternate the order of Windows and Linux references throughout the documentation, or present Linux examples first in some sections.
- Explicitly mention Linux management tools (e.g., Azure CLI, SSH) before or alongside PowerShell when listing extension management options.
- Provide direct troubleshooting links for Linux VM extensions in the same way as for Windows.
- Ensure that all extension examples and lifecycle instructions include both Linux and Windows commands/scripts, or link to them equally.
- Review and balance the order of 'Next steps' links so Linux and Windows are treated equally.
