Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias. All command-line examples use PowerShell and Az PowerShell modules, with no mention of Bash, Azure CLI, or Linux-native tooling. The prerequisites and setup steps exclusively reference PowerShell modules and commands, and there are no Linux-specific instructions or examples. The only nod to Linux is the retirement announcement for Automation DSC Linux, but the guidance and examples remain Windows-centric.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent Azure CLI examples for all PowerShell commands, as Azure CLI is cross-platform and commonly used on Linux.
- Include instructions and examples for Linux users, such as how to authenticate and interact with Azure Automation and Monitor Logs using Bash or other Linux-native tools.
- Clarify which steps are platform-agnostic and which are Windows-specific, and offer alternatives where possible.
- Explicitly state the current support status for Linux nodes and workflows, and link to migration or alternative guidance for Linux users.
- Review and update prerequisites to mention cross-platform tools (e.g., Azure CLI) alongside PowerShell.
- Consider including a table or section comparing Windows and Linux approaches for integration, if Linux support is still relevant for some users.
