Summary
The documentation exhibits a strong Windows bias: the Azure Migrate: App Containerization tool is only available for Windows, all installation and operational steps require a Windows machine, and only PowerShell is used for installation. There are no instructions or alternatives for Linux or macOS users to run the tool natively, nor are there examples for installing or operating the tool on non-Windows platforms. Linux is only referenced as the target application server, not as a platform for running the migration tooling itself.
Recommendations
  • Provide a Linux-native version of the Azure Migrate: App Containerization tool, or document how to run the tool in a Linux environment (e.g., via container, VM, or Wine).
  • Include installation instructions for Linux/macOS, such as using Bash or shell scripts instead of PowerShell.
  • Offer guidance for users who do not have access to a Windows machine, including cloud-based or containerized options.
  • Clarify in prerequisites and introduction that a Windows machine is strictly required, and suggest alternatives or workarounds for Linux/macOS users.
  • Where possible, present cross-platform examples (e.g., Azure CLI commands) before or alongside Windows/PowerShell instructions.
