Summary
The documentation exclusively uses PowerShell for scripting and Azure Automation examples, with no mention of Bash, Azure CLI, or Linux-native approaches. All code samples, instructions, and tool references are Windows-centric, and there are no alternative examples or guidance for Linux users. The workflow assumes familiarity with PowerShell and Windows tooling, which may disadvantage users on Linux or macOS platforms.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent examples using Bash and Azure CLI, demonstrating how to achieve the same VM startup order functionality on Linux.
- Include instructions for creating and running runbooks with non-PowerShell scripts in Azure Automation.
- Mention cross-platform tools and patterns, such as Azure CLI or REST API, and link to relevant documentation.
- Add a section discussing platform differences and how Linux/macOS users can adapt the workflow.
- Ensure that prerequisites and step-by-step instructions are not dependent on Windows-only tools.
