Windows Tools
Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows environments. All VM creation instructions specify Windows Server as the image, and all connection, configuration, and verification steps use Windows-specific tools (RDP, PowerShell, Command Prompt, SMB). There are no examples or guidance for Linux-based VMs or tools (e.g., SSH, Linux firewall commands), making it difficult for Linux/macOS users to follow the tutorial or adapt it to their platforms.
Recommendations
- Provide parallel instructions for creating Linux VM instances, including recommended Linux distributions.
- Include examples for connecting to Linux VMs using SSH, and for configuring firewalls using Linux commands (e.g., ufw, iptables).
- Add verification steps using Linux tools (e.g., ping, smbclient, mounting shares via CIFS).
- Clarify which steps are Windows-specific and offer Linux/macOS alternatives where possible.
- Mention that Service Fabric clusters can be hosted on Linux VMs and link to relevant documentation.
