Summary
The documentation page is heavily focused on Windows and PowerShell, referencing Windows PowerShell 5.1 explicitly and providing examples and tooling (PowerSTIG, DSC) that are primarily Windows-centric. There is no mention of Linux equivalents or examples, and the guidance assumes familiarity with Windows tools and patterns. Although there is a brief mention of onboarding Linux machines, no Linux-specific configuration or tooling is discussed.
Recommendations
- Include examples and instructions for configuring Linux servers using Azure Automation State Configuration.
- Reference cross-platform DSC implementations (such as PowerShell Core or native Linux DSC support) where applicable.
- Provide parity in documentation by listing Linux tools, patterns, and community projects that address STIG compliance.
- Clarify which features and tools are Windows-only and which are available on Linux, and provide links to Linux-specific resources.
