Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a moderate Windows bias. PowerShell is the only automation/scripting method shown for managing agentless dependency analysis (enabling/disabling, exporting data), with no Linux/macOS CLI alternatives provided. Windows credential patterns and administrative permissions are described first and in more detail than Linux equivalents. The use of PowerShell and references to Windows domain/nondomain accounts are pervasive, while Linux instructions are limited to credential requirements. There are no bash, shell, or cross-platform CLI examples for Linux/macOS users.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent Linux/macOS CLI instructions (e.g., Azure CLI, Bash scripts) for all PowerShell-based management tasks, including enabling/disabling dependency analysis and exporting data.
- Include Linux credential and permission setup examples before or alongside Windows instructions, with explicit command-line steps.
- Reference cross-platform tools (e.g., Azure CLI) where possible, and clarify which steps are OS-agnostic.
- Add screenshots or walkthroughs from Linux environments where relevant.
- Clearly indicate which steps are applicable to Windows-only and which are cross-platform.
