Summary
The documentation exhibits a notable Windows bias. The primary automation examples and scripts are provided only in PowerShell, with explicit instructions to use PowerShell ISE. There are no equivalent Bash or Linux shell examples for the main setup and configuration tasks, even though Azure DevOps agents and SAP workloads are commonly run on Linux. Windows tools and workflows (PowerShell ISE, Visual Studio Code, screenshots of Windows UI) are mentioned exclusively or before Linux alternatives. While some sections (like app registration and web app update) do provide both Linux and Windows tabs, the core automation and setup steps lack Linux parity.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Bash or shell script examples for all PowerShell scripts, especially for initial setup and configuration tasks.
  • Avoid recommending Windows-only tools (e.g., PowerShell ISE) as the default; suggest cross-platform editors like VS Code or shell environments.
  • Ensure that all instructions and screenshots are available for both Windows and Linux environments, or clarify when steps are OS-agnostic.
  • Explicitly mention Linux support and provide guidance for running automation tasks on Linux-based agents and workstations.
  • Where custom modules or scripts are used (e.g., SDAFUtilities), document how to use them from Linux shells or provide alternative implementations.
