Summary
The documentation is heavily oriented towards Windows and PowerShell. All examples and terminology (e.g., 'PSExecutionPolicy', '[PSCredential]', PowerShell cmdlets) are Windows-centric, with no Linux equivalents or examples provided. The mention of Chocolatey (a Windows package manager) further reinforces the Windows bias. Additionally, the inclusion of a Linux retirement announcement suggests diminishing support for Linux, but no alternative guidance is offered for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent Linux examples for composing DSC configurations, including references to Linux-specific resources and parameters.
  • Include guidance or links for Linux users on how to achieve similar configuration management, possibly with other tools or Azure features.
  • Mention Linux tools and patterns (such as native shell scripts or Ansible) where appropriate, and avoid assuming PowerShell is the only option.
  • Ensure that examples and screenshots include both Windows and Linux scenarios, or clarify platform limitations explicitly.
  • If Linux support is deprecated, offer migration paths or alternatives for Linux users.
