Summary:
The documentation is heavily oriented towards Windows, with all configuration steps relying exclusively on PowerShell commands and Windows-specific tools. There are no Linux-native examples or alternative instructions for users who may wish to interact with the EFLOW VM or its networking from a Linux environment. The workflow assumes the user is operating from a Windows host, and Linux commands are only mentioned for in-VM inspection, not for configuration.
Recommendations:
- Provide equivalent instructions for managing EFLOW networking from a Linux host, if supported, or clarify host OS limitations.
- Include examples using cross-platform tools (e.g., Azure CLI, SSH) where possible, not just PowerShell cmdlets.
- If PowerShell is required, mention PowerShell Core and its availability on Linux/macOS, and provide guidance for those platforms.
- Add a section explicitly addressing Linux/macOS users, outlining what is and isn't possible from those environments.
- Where only Windows is supported, clearly state this limitation at the start of the article.
