Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by frequently referencing PowerShell as the primary automation and scripting tool for migration operations, with no mention of Linux shell equivalents or cross-platform CLI usage. PowerShell is suggested for retrying stuck operations and for retrieving deployments, while Linux-friendly alternatives (such as Bash or Azure CLI examples) are not provided. The documentation also lists PowerShell before REST API, and does not offer explicit Linux or cross-platform migration workflows or troubleshooting steps.
Recommendations
- Add Azure CLI (az) examples alongside or before PowerShell commands, as Azure CLI is cross-platform and widely used on Linux and macOS.
- Explicitly mention that migration operations (such as abort, commit, validate) can be performed using Azure CLI or Bash scripts, and provide example commands.
- Include troubleshooting steps and automation guidance for Linux users, such as using Bash, shell scripts, or Azure CLI.
- Ensure that REST API references are accompanied by sample requests using curl or httpie, which are common on Linux.
- Review all sections where PowerShell is mentioned and add equivalent instructions for Linux environments.
- Clarify that the migration tool and processes are supported on both Windows and Linux platforms, if applicable.
