Summary
The documentation is heavily biased toward Windows and PowerShell. All examples use Windows-centric DSC resources (e.g., WindowsFeature IIS), and all command-line instructions are given in PowerShell. Prerequisites and links focus on Windows VMs and Windows PowerShell DSC, with no Linux configuration examples or equivalent Linux tooling mentioned. The retirement announcement for Linux DSC is included, but there is no guidance or parity for Linux users.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit Linux onboarding/configuration examples, using Linux DSC resources (if still supported) or alternatives.
  • Include Bash/CLI examples where possible, or clarify cross-platform support and alternatives for Linux users.
  • Mention Linux VM creation and configuration in prerequisites and link to relevant documentation.
  • If Linux DSC is deprecated, provide migration guidance or alternatives for Linux configuration management (e.g., Ansible, Chef, native Azure solutions).
  • Balance references to Windows tools (PowerShell, WindowsFeature) with Linux equivalents or alternatives.
