Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows and PowerShell workflows for compiling DSC configurations in Azure Automation. All code examples use Windows PowerShell, and Windows-specific tools and paths (e.g., C:\, WindowsFeature) are referenced throughout. There are no Linux or cross-platform examples, and Linux-specific workflows are not discussed. The documentation mentions the retirement of Linux support, but does not provide guidance for Linux users or alternatives.
Recommendations
- Clearly state the current support status for Linux/macOS, including any retirement or migration paths.
- If any Linux workflows remain supported, add equivalent Linux examples (e.g., using Azure CLI, Bash, or cross-platform PowerShell Core).
- Where possible, use platform-neutral terminology and examples, or explicitly note platform-specific steps.
- Provide guidance for users migrating from Linux DSC to supported alternatives.
- If Linux is no longer supported, make this explicit at the top of the documentation and link to migration resources.
