Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows environments, exclusively listing Windows Server and Windows Client OS support for all extension versions. All tooling references are to Windows Management Framework (WMF) and PowerShell DSC, with no mention of Linux equivalents or examples. There are no Linux-specific instructions, environments, or supported OS versions described, and the only Linux-related content is a retirement announcement, further emphasizing the Windows bias.
Recommendations
- Clearly state the current and historical support status for Linux, including which extension versions (if any) supported Linux and when support was retired.
- Add a dedicated section summarizing Linux support lifecycle, with links to relevant Linux DSC documentation (if available).
- If Linux support is retired, provide migration guidance or alternatives for Linux users.
- Where possible, include examples or notes for Linux users, even if only to clarify that features are Windows-only.
- Avoid presenting Windows-only tools and instructions without context about Linux support status.
