Summary
The tutorial demonstrates a notable Windows bias: all virtual machine examples use Windows Server, IIS installation is shown only via PowerShell, and no Linux VM or command-line alternatives are provided. Windows tools and workflows (PowerShell, RDP, IIS) are used exclusively, with no mention of Linux equivalents (e.g., SSH, Apache/Nginx, Bash). This creates friction for users wishing to follow the tutorial with Linux-based workloads.
Recommendations
  • Include Linux VM creation steps alongside Windows examples, using Ubuntu or other common distributions.
  • Provide Linux command-line equivalents for tasks such as web server installation (e.g., apt install apache2/nginx) and remote access (SSH instead of RDP).
  • Show how to use Bash or Azure CLI for VM extension deployment, not just PowerShell.
  • Explicitly mention that the tutorial applies to both Windows and Linux workloads, and highlight any differences.
  • Add screenshots and walkthroughs for Linux VM configuration and testing.
