Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows and PowerShell. All command-line examples use PowerShell, and the installation and usage of the self-hosted integration runtime is described only for Windows. There are no instructions or examples for Linux or macOS users, and Windows-specific tools and file paths are referenced throughout. This creates significant friction for non-Windows users, who cannot follow the tutorial as written.
Recommendations
  • Provide equivalent instructions and examples for Linux and macOS, including command-line steps using Azure CLI or REST API.
  • Clarify platform requirements for the self-hosted integration runtime and, if possible, provide alternatives or note Linux support status.
  • Include cross-platform file path examples and avoid hardcoding Windows paths (e.g., C:\ADFv2Tutorial).
  • Explicitly state any platform limitations early in the prerequisites section.
  • If PowerShell is required, mention how to install and use PowerShell Core on Linux/macOS, or offer Azure CLI alternatives.
