Summary
The documentation exhibits a moderate Windows bias. In code examples for enabling Automatic Extension Upgrade, the 'DependencyAgentWindows' extension type is used in REST, PowerShell, and ARM template samples, while the CLI examples use 'DependencyAgentLinux'. PowerShell examples are provided, but no Bash or Linux shell script equivalents are shown. Windows extension types are shown first in most code blocks, and PowerShell is presented as the only scripting option. There is no explicit mention of Linux-specific considerations or troubleshooting, and Windows-centric tools (PowerShell) are featured without Linux alternatives.
Recommendations
- Provide parallel examples for both Windows and Linux extension types in all code blocks (REST, PowerShell, CLI, ARM templates), e.g., show both 'DependencyAgentWindows' and 'DependencyAgentLinux' in each section.
- Include Bash or shell script examples for Linux users, especially in scripting sections.
- Add explicit notes or troubleshooting tips for Linux users where extension behavior may differ.
- When listing supported extensions, alternate the order or group by OS to avoid Windows-first presentation.
- Mention Linux-native tools or commands where relevant, not just PowerShell.
