Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by referencing PowerShell as the primary or sole automation method for working with Data Flow Script outside the UI. There are no examples or mentions of Linux or cross-platform alternatives (such as Bash, CLI, or REST API usage from non-Windows environments). The documentation assumes the user is familiar with PowerShell and Windows tooling, and does not provide parity for Linux users.
Recommendations:
- Include equivalent examples using Azure CLI and/or Bash scripts for generating and submitting Data Flow Scripts, alongside the PowerShell example.
- Explicitly mention that the Data Flow Script can be used with REST APIs, and provide a sample using curl or similar Linux-native tools.
- Rephrase sections that mention PowerShell as the default or only automation method to clarify that cross-platform options exist.
- Add a 'Platform compatibility' note early in the document, highlighting that all features are available on both Windows and Linux, and link to relevant cross-platform tooling.
- Where automation is discussed, present Windows and Linux options side-by-side or in parallel sections, rather than Windows-first or Windows-only.

### Moving Average
Moving average can be implemented very easily in data flows by using a Windows transformation. This example below creates a 15-day moving average of stock prices for Microsoft.
