Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by exclusively providing PowerShell commands for listing Azure Government Marketplace images, without offering equivalent Azure CLI or Bash examples. The 'Next steps' section lists Windows VM creation guides before Linux, and the only Linux-related link is for the portal, not for command-line tools. There is no mention of Linux tools or workflows for image discovery, and the guidance assumes use of Windows-centric tools.
Recommendations
  • Add Azure CLI and Bash examples for listing VM images, alongside the PowerShell example.
  • Include Linux-focused instructions for connecting to Azure Government and managing images.
  • In the 'Next steps' section, provide parity by including links to Linux VM creation with CLI and PowerShell, and consider alternating the order or grouping by OS.
  • Mention cross-platform tools (e.g., Azure CLI) earlier and equally with PowerShell to avoid implying Windows is the default or preferred environment.
