Summary
The documentation page exhibits a notable Windows bias. It centers on PowerShell DSC (a Windows-centric technology), references Windows PowerShell versions and commands, and describes migration steps using PowerShell cmdlets. There are no Linux-specific examples, nor is there guidance for Linux VM scenarios. Windows tools and terminology (e.g., Local Configuration Manager, PowerShell modules, DSC extension for Windows) are used exclusively or first, with no mention of Linux equivalents or considerations.
Recommendations
- Add explicit guidance for Linux VMs, including how to check for DSC extension usage and migrate configurations.
- Provide Linux/macOS-specific examples for commands and configuration packaging, including Bash or CLI alternatives where possible.
- Clarify whether machine configuration supports Linux VMs and how migration differs for non-Windows platforms.
- Mention Linux-compatible modules, configuration formats, and any platform-specific limitations.
- Reorder examples or sections so that Linux and Windows are treated equally, or at least acknowledge platform differences early.
