Summary
The documentation demonstrates a strong Windows bias: the Azure Migrate: App Containerization tool is only installable and runnable on Windows machines, with explicit requirements for Windows Server or Windows 10/11. All installation instructions use PowerShell, and troubleshooting references Windows file paths. There are no instructions or examples for Linux or macOS users to install or run the tool, nor are alternative workflows provided for non-Windows environments. This creates a significant barrier for users on Linux or macOS, despite the fact that the applications being containerized are running on Linux servers.
Recommendations
  • Provide a Linux-compatible version of the Azure Migrate: App Containerization tool, or document alternative workflows for Linux/macOS users.
  • Include installation and usage instructions for Linux (e.g., bash scripts, .deb/.rpm packages, Docker images) alongside Windows/PowerShell examples.
  • Offer troubleshooting steps for Linux/macOS environments, or clarify platform limitations early in the documentation.
  • Consider providing a web-based or containerized version of the tool that can be run cross-platform.
