Summary
The documentation page exclusively uses PowerShell and Windows-centric tooling (PowerShell Gallery, PowerShell ISE) for all examples and instructions. There are no references to Linux-native tools, Bash, or cross-platform alternatives for authoring or deploying runbooks. The instructions assume the user is familiar with PowerShell and Windows environments, and do not provide parity for Linux users or those preferring AWS CLI or Python SDKs.
Recommendations
- Add equivalent examples using Bash scripts and the AWS CLI for VM provisioning.
- Include instructions for importing and using AWS CLI or Python modules in Azure Automation, which are supported on Linux-based Hybrid Runbook Workers.
- Mention cross-platform editors (such as VS Code) and how to author runbooks for Linux environments.
- Provide guidance on authenticating to AWS using environment variables or credential files, which are common on Linux.
- Clarify which steps are Windows-specific and offer Linux alternatives where possible.
- Reference AWS documentation for Linux and CLI usage alongside PowerShell links.
