Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows and PowerShell Desired State Configuration (DSC). All examples, settings, and troubleshooting are tailored to Windows VMs and PowerShell scripts, with no mention of Linux equivalents or cross-platform DSC support. Windows terminology and tools are used exclusively, and there are no Linux-specific instructions or examples.
Recommendations
- Add explicit guidance for Linux VMs, including whether DSC extension is supported or alternatives for Linux configuration management (e.g., using Custom Script Extension, Azure Machine Configuration, or third-party tools like Ansible/Chef/Puppet).
- Provide Linux-specific examples for deploying configuration management via ARM/Bicep templates, if supported.
- Clarify in the introduction and extension settings which platforms are supported and link to Linux documentation where relevant.
- If DSC extension is Windows-only, state this clearly at the top and direct Linux users to appropriate alternatives.
- Include troubleshooting and settings sections relevant to Linux, or note differences in extension behavior between platforms.
