Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows and PowerShell bias. PowerShell is the only shell language mentioned for local debugging, and all directory path examples use Windows-style paths (e.g., C:\abc). Windows operating systems are listed first in the supported OS matrix, and Windows PowerShell 5.1 is specifically called out, with no equivalent focus on Bash or Linux-native tools. There are no Linux or macOS-specific examples or instructions, and Python debugging is not supported or documented, further emphasizing PowerShell and Windows environments.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Linux/macOS examples for directory paths (e.g., /home/user/abc) alongside Windows examples.
  • Include instructions or notes for using Bash or other Linux-native shells for runbook authoring and debugging.
  • List supported operating systems in a neutral or rotating order, or group by platform type (Windows, Linux, macOS).
  • Offer parity in debugging support and documentation for Python runbooks, including recommended debugger extensions for Linux/macOS.
  • Explicitly mention any Linux/macOS-specific considerations or limitations, and provide troubleshooting steps for those platforms.
  • Avoid using only Windows-centric terminology (e.g., 'Manage icon in the activity bar' is fine, but avoid only referencing Windows shortcuts like Ctrl+Shift+P; include Cmd+Shift+P for macOS).
