Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows and PowerShell. All examples use PowerShell cmdlets, and the prerequisites explicitly require a Windows client and PowerShell 5.1 or later. There are no instructions, examples, or mentions of how to perform these tasks on Linux or macOS, nor any alternative tooling or cross-platform guidance. This creates significant friction for non-Windows users.
Recommendations
  • Clarify whether the PowerShell module is compatible with PowerShell Core (pwsh) on Linux/macOS. If so, provide explicit instructions and examples for those platforms.
  • Add Linux/macOS prerequisites, including installation steps for PowerShell Core and the Azure Stack Edge PowerShell module.
  • Provide example commands and workflows for Linux/macOS users, including file path conventions and any platform-specific considerations.
  • If Windows-only features exist, clearly state their limitations and suggest alternative approaches for Linux/macOS users where possible.
  • Consider providing REST API or CLI alternatives if available, which are typically more cross-platform.
