Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows and PowerShell tooling for compiling DSC configurations in Azure Automation. All code examples use Windows PowerShell, and Windows-specific cmdlets and modules are referenced exclusively. There are no examples or guidance for Linux users or cross-platform PowerShell Core usage. Windows tools and patterns are mentioned first and often exclusively, with no mention of Linux equivalents or considerations.
Recommendations
- Provide examples using PowerShell Core (pwsh), which is cross-platform, and clarify which steps work on Linux/macOS.
- Include explicit notes about Linux support status, especially in light of the referenced Linux retirement announcement.
- If Linux compilation is deprecated, clearly state this at the top and provide migration guidance for Linux users.
- Where possible, offer alternative workflows for Linux users (e.g., using Azure CLI, REST API, or other cross-platform tools).
- Add a section or callout summarizing platform support and any differences in workflow between Windows and Linux.
- Ensure that any references to file paths, modules, or commands are either cross-platform or have Linux/macOS equivalents provided.
