Summary:
The documentation page demonstrates a notable Windows and PowerShell bias. Most automation and scripting examples, feature announcements, and tooling references focus on PowerShell (a Windows-centric technology) and Windows environments. PowerShell runbooks are consistently mentioned before Python runbooks, and there is an emphasis on PowerShell version updates. Azure CLI support is highlighted only in the context of PowerShell runbooks, not as standalone Bash or Linux-native automation. References to tools and extensions (such as Visual Studio Code integration) are also primarily described in the context of PowerShell. There are few, if any, Linux- or Bash-specific examples, and Linux parity is often implied rather than explicitly demonstrated.
Recommendations:
- Provide equal prominence to Python and Bash runbooks alongside PowerShell in all feature announcements and examples.
- Include explicit Linux/Bash scripting examples and scenarios, not just PowerShell or Windows-centric workflows.
- When introducing new features (e.g., runtime environments, CLI support), clarify support and usage for Linux-native tools and shells.
- Reference Linux and Windows platforms equally when discussing hybrid worker support, migration, and deprecation notices.
- Highlight cross-platform capabilities and provide guidance for both Windows and Linux users in tooling and extension documentation.
- Ensure that documentation updates and new features are illustrated with both PowerShell and Python/Bash sample scripts where applicable.
