Summary
The documentation page exhibits a strong Windows bias, with nearly all examples, code snippets, and tool references centered around PowerShell, PowerShell Workflow, and Windows-centric patterns. The page lacks Linux shell (bash) or cross-platform CLI examples, and does not mention Linux-specific tools or workflows. Even when discussing Python runbooks, the examples and context are minimal compared to the extensive PowerShell coverage. The instructions for starting runbooks from local machines exclusively use PowerShell, with no mention of Bash, Azure CLI, or Linux-native approaches.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent examples using Azure CLI (az) commands for starting and managing runbooks, which are cross-platform and widely used on Linux.
- Include bash shell examples for passing parameters to runbooks, especially for Python runbooks, to demonstrate Linux parity.
- Mention Linux and macOS environments explicitly in sections about running scripts locally, and provide instructions for those platforms.
- Reference Linux tools (e.g., curl for REST API calls, jq for JSON manipulation) alongside PowerShell examples.
- Balance the documentation by providing equal detail and screenshots for non-Windows workflows, such as using Azure Automation from a Linux VM or container.
- Clarify which features or behaviors are platform-specific (e.g., PowerShell parameter handling) and which are cross-platform.
