Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows and PowerShell, with all examples and references tailored to Windows PowerShell DSC. Linux is only mentioned in passing, with no concrete examples or guidance for Linux users. The tools and workflows described (ReverseDSC, SharePointDSC) are Windows-centric, and there is no information on how to achieve similar outcomes on Linux or macOS platforms.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit examples and workflows for Linux/macOS systems, including how to extract configurations and generate MOF files from Linux servers.
  • Clarify whether ReverseDSC or similar tools support Linux, and if not, suggest alternative approaches or community projects for Linux users.
  • Include links to Linux DSC resources and documentation, and provide step-by-step instructions for Linux environments.
  • Balance references to Windows PowerShell with equivalent instructions for PowerShell Core on Linux/macOS where possible.
