Summary
The documentation displays several forms of Windows bias. Windows support is described as more complete and is mentioned first in the OS support section. PowerShell is the only CLI tool shown for service creation and DNS name assignment, with no Linux CLI (e.g., Bash, Azure CLI) equivalents. Visual Studio is referenced for editing manifests, which is a Windows-centric tool. There are no Linux-specific instructions or examples for enabling or managing DNS service, and enabling DNS service via the Azure portal is only available for Windows clusters. Linux limitations are mentioned, but Linux workflows are not documented.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Linux/Bash/Azure CLI examples for service creation and DNS name assignment.
  • Include instructions for editing manifests using cross-platform editors (e.g., VS Code, nano, vim) instead of or alongside Visual Studio.
  • Document Linux-specific workflows for enabling DNS service, including ARM template modifications and any required manual steps.
  • Clarify which steps are platform-agnostic and which are Windows- or Linux-specific, and present Linux options alongside Windows ones.
  • Add explicit guidance for Linux users regarding portal limitations and alternative management strategies.
