Summary
The documentation is heavily oriented towards Windows and PowerShell, referencing Windows PowerShell versions, DSC extension specifics, and commands without providing Linux/macOS equivalents or guidance. Examples and migration steps assume PowerShell usage and Windows-centric workflows, with no mention of Linux DSC extension scenarios, Bash/CLI alternatives, or cross-platform considerations.
Recommendations
- Add explicit guidance for Linux and macOS users, including how to check for DSC extension usage on non-Windows VMs.
- Provide examples using Bash, Azure CLI, or cross-platform PowerShell Core where possible.
- Clarify whether machine configuration and migration steps apply to Linux VMs, and if so, detail any differences.
- Include references to Linux DSC extension documentation and migration paths.
- List OS-specific limitations or considerations for both Windows and Linux up front.
