Summary
The documentation is heavily biased toward Windows and PowerShell usage. All examples use PowerShell cmdlets and Windows-specific DSC resources (e.g., WindowsFeature IIS). The prerequisites and walkthrough focus exclusively on Windows VMs, with no Linux equivalents or examples provided. Linux support is only mentioned in passing, and there are no instructions or code samples for Linux systems.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent Linux examples throughout the tutorial, including onboarding, configuration authoring, and node registration.
- Provide sample DSC configurations for Linux (e.g., ensuring an Apache web server is installed using nxPackage or other cross-platform DSC resources).
- Include Bash/CLI examples where possible, or reference cross-platform tools.
- Clarify in the prerequisites and introduction whether Linux is supported and, if not, clearly state the limitations.
- If Linux support is deprecated (as hinted by the retirement announcement), make this explicit at the start and provide migration guidance.
