Summary
The documentation is heavily biased towards Windows environments and PowerShell usage. All examples use Windows PowerShell cmdlets and focus on configuring Windows VMs (specifically installing IIS). Prerequisites and walkthroughs reference only Windows Server and Windows-specific tooling, with no Linux/macOS equivalents or examples. Although there is a mention of Linux support, no Linux-specific instructions, shell commands, or configuration examples are provided.
Recommendations
  • Add Linux-specific examples, such as configuring a Linux VM (e.g., installing Apache or Nginx) using DSC.
  • Include Bash/CLI instructions alongside PowerShell, especially for onboarding and configuration steps.
  • Clarify the current support status for Linux DSC in Azure Automation, given the retirement announcement.
  • Provide links to Linux onboarding documentation and highlight any differences or limitations.
  • Present examples for both Windows and Linux in parallel, or clearly indicate platform-specific sections.
