Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias. All code examples use Windows PowerShell, and all tooling references are for Windows-based tools (PowerShell cmdlets, WindowsFeature resource, etc.). There are no examples or guidance for compiling DSC configurations on Linux, nor are Linux tools or workflows mentioned. The structure and language consistently prioritize Windows and PowerShell, with no parity for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit guidance and examples for compiling DSC configurations on Linux, using native Linux tools or cross-platform PowerShell Core.
  • Include Linux-specific resources and workflows, such as using OpenSSH, Linux file paths, and Linux DSC resources.
  • Clarify any limitations or differences for Linux users, especially in light of the referenced 'automation-dsc-linux-retirement-announcement'.
  • Where PowerShell is referenced, specify whether PowerShell Core (cross-platform) is supported, and provide examples for both Windows and Linux environments.
  • Mention alternative configuration management tools or patterns for Linux if DSC support is deprecated or limited.
