Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and PowerShell examples for creating VMs from specialized images, but the PowerShell examples are significantly more detailed and complex, including full networking setup and resource creation, while the CLI examples are minimal. PowerShell is a Windows-centric tool, and the lack of parity in CLI examples may disadvantage Linux/macOS users. Additionally, PowerShell examples are presented before CLI in some sections, and there are no Bash or Linux-native scripting examples for tasks like networking setup.
Recommendations
  • Expand Azure CLI examples to include full resource setup (networking, NSG, NIC, etc.), matching the detail of PowerShell examples.
  • Add Bash shell script examples for Linux/macOS users, especially for multi-step VM deployments.
  • Ensure CLI examples are presented before or alongside PowerShell examples to avoid Windows-first impression.
  • Explicitly mention that all CLI commands work on Linux/macOS and provide troubleshooting tips for non-Windows platforms.
