Summary
The documentation demonstrates a Windows bias by requiring PowerShell for the migration script, providing only PowerShell commands for key steps (such as decoding base64), and referencing a .ps1 script without any Linux shell or Bash alternatives. There are no Linux or Bash equivalents for the script-based migration, and PowerShell is listed as a prerequisite. This may hinder Linux/macOS users, who are likely to use Bash or other Unix shells.
Recommendations
  • Provide Bash or shell script equivalents for all PowerShell commands, especially for decoding base64 and running migration scripts.
  • Offer a cross-platform migration script (e.g., a Bash script or a Docker container) or document how to run the PowerShell script on Linux/macOS (e.g., via PowerShell Core).
  • List prerequisites in a cross-platform way, e.g., 'PowerShell (Windows) or Bash (Linux/macOS)'.
  • Where possible, use Azure CLI and Docker commands, which are cross-platform, and avoid steps that require Windows-only tools.
  • Add explicit Linux/macOS instructions or notes for each step that currently only shows a Windows/PowerShell approach.
