Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows and PowerShell workflows for compiling DSC configurations in Azure Automation. All code examples use Windows PowerShell, and Windows-specific modules and patterns are referenced throughout. There is no mention of Linux equivalents, nor are there any examples or guidance for Linux users. Windows tools and terminology are used exclusively, and the documentation assumes a Windows-centric environment.
Recommendations
  • Add examples and instructions for compiling DSC configurations from Linux environments, using cross-platform PowerShell Core or other supported tools.
  • Explicitly state Linux support status and alternatives, especially in light of the referenced Linux retirement announcement.
  • Provide parity in documentation by including Linux shell (bash) or PowerShell Core examples where applicable.
  • Mention any limitations or differences for Linux users up front, and link to relevant migration or support guidance.
  • If Linux support is deprecated, clarify migration paths and alternatives for Linux-based automation.
