Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by prioritizing RDP (a Windows protocol) in both the portal and native client sections, listing RDP before SSH, and omitting explicit Linux-focused examples or screenshots. There are no Linux-specific instructions, such as connecting from a Linux terminal or using Linux-native tools. All command-line examples use Azure CLI but are generic, with no mention of Linux authentication patterns or SSH key management. The documentation does not address Linux users' needs directly.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux-specific examples, such as connecting from a Linux terminal using SSH with Azure Bastion.
  • Include screenshots or instructions that show connecting to Linux VMs (e.g., using SSH) in the Azure portal.
  • List SSH (Linux) examples before RDP (Windows) examples, or present them in parallel to avoid Windows-first bias.
  • Mention Linux authentication methods, such as using private key files and their typical locations on Linux systems.
  • Clarify that the Azure CLI commands work on all platforms and provide any Linux-specific notes if needed.
