Summary
The documentation exhibits a strong Windows bias: the Azure Migrate: App Containerization tool is only available for Windows, with explicit requirements for a Windows machine (Windows Server or Windows 10) to run the tool. All installation instructions use PowerShell, and file paths/logs are referenced using Windows conventions. There are no instructions or examples for running the tool on Linux or macOS, nor alternatives for non-Windows users. The documentation assumes the user has access to a Windows environment, even when containerizing Java apps running on Linux servers.
Recommendations
  • Provide a Linux (and optionally macOS) version of the Azure Migrate: App Containerization tool, or document how to run the tool in a Linux environment (e.g., via Wine, Docker, or a VM).
  • Include installation and usage instructions for Linux users, using Bash and Linux-native commands.
  • Reference Linux file paths and troubleshooting steps alongside Windows equivalents.
  • If Windows is a hard requirement, clearly state this upfront and suggest workarounds (such as using a Windows VM or cloud-hosted Windows environment) for Linux-only users.
  • Offer parity in examples and screenshots, showing both Windows and Linux workflows where possible.
