Summary
The documentation demonstrates a strong Windows bias: the Azure Migrate: App Containerization tool can only be installed and run on Windows machines, with explicit requirements for Windows Server or Windows 10/11. All installation and usage instructions (including PowerShell commands and file paths) are Windows-specific, with no mention of Linux or macOS alternatives for running the tool. Troubleshooting and artifact storage paths are also Windows-centric. While the tool targets containerizing Java apps running on Linux servers, the management and orchestration are exclusively Windows-based, and there are no Linux-native usage examples or instructions.
Recommendations
  • Provide a Linux version of the Azure Migrate: App Containerization tool, or clarify if it is not available.
  • If the tool is Windows-only, explicitly state this limitation at the start of the documentation.
  • Offer equivalent installation and usage instructions for Linux (e.g., bash scripts, Linux file paths) if/when the tool supports it.
  • Include troubleshooting and artifact location instructions for Linux environments if supported.
  • Consider providing a containerized version of the tool itself, so it can be run cross-platform.
  • If Windows is required only for the tool, suggest using a lightweight Windows VM or container for Linux users, and provide guidance on how to set this up.
