Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on PowerShell modules and cmdlets, with nearly all examples, instructions, and tooling centered around Windows PowerShell and Az/AzureRM modules. Windows-specific features (such as internal cmdlets and Hybrid Runbook Worker) are described in detail, while Linux equivalents are either missing or mentioned only to note their lack of support. There are no Linux shell (bash) examples, and Python is referenced only briefly. The documentation assumes a Windows-centric workflow and does not provide parity for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux-specific guidance and examples, such as using bash scripts or Python runbooks in Azure Automation.
  • Clearly document which features are Windows-only and provide alternatives or workarounds for Linux users where possible.
  • Include instructions for managing modules on Linux Hybrid Runbook Workers, even if limited, and highlight differences.
  • Expand the Python section to include practical examples and module management steps for Linux environments.
  • Where PowerShell is used, clarify compatibility with PowerShell Core (cross-platform) and provide examples for non-Windows platforms.
  • Add a comparison table showing feature parity and gaps between Windows and Linux Hybrid Runbook Workers.
