Summary
The documentation page exhibits a notable Windows bias. All configuration examples use Windows PowerShell DSC syntax and resources (e.g., WindowsFeature), with no Linux equivalent shown. The only VM creation link is for Windows, and references to DSC documentation and resources are Windows-centric. There is no demonstration of managing Linux nodes, nor are Linux-specific resources or onboarding steps included. Windows terminology and tools (PowerShell, WindowsFeature) are used exclusively throughout the guide.
Recommendations
- Add parallel examples for Linux nodes, including configuration samples using cross-platform DSC resources or Linux-specific resources.
- Include links and instructions for creating Linux VMs in Azure alongside Windows VM instructions.
- Reference Linux DSC documentation and resources where appropriate.
- Clarify which steps and resources are Windows-only and provide guidance for Linux users where features differ or are deprecated.
- If Linux support is deprecated, make this clear at the start and provide migration or alternative guidance for Linux users.
