Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows environments and PowerShell tooling. All examples use Windows-specific features (e.g., WindowsFeature IIS), and only Windows VM creation is described in prerequisites. There are no Linux-specific configuration examples, nor any mention of Linux DSC resources or onboarding Linux VMs. PowerShell is the only automation language shown, and all cmdlets are Windows-centric. The documentation references Windows tools and patterns exclusively, with no parity for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux-specific configuration examples, such as installing Apache or Nginx using DSC resources for Linux.
  • Include onboarding steps and prerequisites for Linux VMs, referencing the appropriate Azure documentation.
  • Show how to use cross-platform tools (e.g., Azure CLI, Bash) for managing DSC configurations and nodes.
  • Mention and link to Linux DSC resource documentation and clarify current support status for Linux nodes.
  • If Linux support is deprecated, clearly state alternatives or migration paths for Linux users.
