Summary
The documentation provides a schema example that exclusively uses Windows values for 'osPlatform' and 'imageReference', without showing equivalent Linux values or examples. While the remarks mention that 'osPlatform' can be either Windows or Linux, all concrete examples and defaults are Windows-centric.
Recommendations
  • Add a parallel schema example using 'osPlatform': 'Linux' and a representative Linux 'imageReference' (e.g., Ubuntu or CentOS).
  • Explicitly show both Windows and Linux options in sample code and outputs.
  • Where possible, alternate the order of Windows and Linux mentions, or present them together, to avoid implicit prioritization.
  • Clarify in remarks or notes that all features and options are equally supported for Linux, and provide links to relevant Linux image references.
