Summary

The documentation page is heavily focused on PowerShell and Windows-centric tools, with almost exclusive reference to the PowerShell Gallery, PowerShell modules, and Windows Azure VMs. There are no Linux-specific examples, tools, or workflows provided, and the only mention of Linux is in a tag suggestion. All example runbooks and scenarios are Windows/PowerShell oriented, and there is no parity in guidance for Linux automation or modules.

Recommendations

Add equivalent examples and workflows for Linux automation, such as using Python runbooks or Bash scripts.
Include references to Linux Azure VMs and provide sample runbooks for managing Linux VMs (e.g., copying files to/from Linux VMs, managing Linux services).
Highlight cross-platform capabilities of Azure Automation, and clarify which features are Windows-only and which are available for Linux.
Provide parity in documentation structure: if PowerShell Gallery and modules are discussed, also discuss Python package sources or Bash script repositories where applicable.
Include at least one end-to-end example for Linux users, such as importing and running a Python runbook on a Linux VM.
