Summary
The documentation is heavily oriented toward Windows environments, with all examples and instructions using PowerShell and Windows-style file paths. There are no Linux/macOS equivalents or alternative instructions, and the only tooling mentioned is PowerShell, which is native to Windows. The folder path examples and commands assume a Windows filesystem, and the process for testing the watcher task is described only for Windows users.
Recommendations
- Provide equivalent examples for Linux/macOS environments, such as using Bash or Python scripts for file creation and monitoring.
- Clarify whether the Hybrid Runbook Worker supports Linux hosts and, if so, include instructions for setting up watcher tasks on Linux.
- Show Linux-style file paths (e.g., /home/examplefiles) alongside Windows paths.
- Include commands for creating test files on Linux/macOS (e.g., 'touch ExampleFile1.txt').
- Mention cross-platform PowerShell (pwsh) if supported, and clarify any platform limitations.
- Explicitly state any platform restrictions for watcher tasks and runbooks.
