Summary
The documentation demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. VM creation examples consistently use Windows images (e.g., 'Win2016Datacenter') and Windows-style authentication (username/password), with no mention of Linux images or SSH authentication. PowerShell is given equal prominence to Azure CLI, but CLI examples are tailored to Windows VM deployment. There are no explicit Linux-specific examples or guidance for deploying Premium SSD v2 disks with Linux VMs, nor are Linux authentication patterns (SSH keys) covered.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Linux VM deployment examples using Azure CLI and PowerShell, including common Linux images (e.g., UbuntuLTS, CentOS).
  • Show how to use SSH key authentication for Linux VMs in CLI and PowerShell examples.
  • In variable initialization, provide both Windows and Linux image options, and clarify which parameters are OS-specific.
  • When presenting examples, alternate or parallel Windows and Linux scenarios, or provide a table of common images.
  • Clarify that Azure CLI and PowerShell are cross-platform, and provide notes on usage from Linux/macOS terminals.
  • Ensure portal screenshots and instructions mention Linux VM options where relevant.
