Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias in several areas. Windows and Windows tools (PowerShell cmdlets) are presented first or exclusively, especially for Python 3.8 scenarios. Linux instructions/examples are only provided for Python 3.10, and there is no parity for PowerShell cmdlets or package management examples for Linux environments. The guidance for generating wheel files is split by OS, but Windows is prioritized for Python 3.8, and Linux for Python 3.10, with no cross-OS examples for each version. There are no Linux CLI or shell script equivalents for the PowerShell cmdlets, and the documentation does not mention Linux tools or patterns for managing packages on Hybrid Runbook Workers.
Recommendations
- Provide Linux-based examples for Python 3.8 package preparation and import, including instructions for generating wheel files on Linux for Python 3.8.
- Include cross-platform CLI alternatives (such as Azure CLI or REST API examples) alongside PowerShell cmdlets for package management tasks.
- Present Windows and Linux instructions in parallel, rather than prioritizing one OS over the other.
- Add guidance for managing Python packages on Linux Hybrid Runbook Workers, including relevant tools and patterns.
- Explicitly mention OS requirements and limitations for each scenario, and clarify when Windows or Linux is required or preferred.
- Where PowerShell is used, provide equivalent bash/shell script examples for Linux users.
