Summary
The documentation is heavily focused on Windows and PowerShell workflows, referencing Windows PowerShell versions, DSC extension (primarily for Windows), and PowerShell cmdlets throughout. There are no explicit Linux/macOS examples, nor is there mention of Linux-specific DSC extension usage or migration steps. Windows tools and concepts (e.g., Local Configuration Manager, PowerShell module paths, Windows PowerShell compatibility) are referenced exclusively or before any cross-platform alternatives.
Recommendations
- Add explicit guidance and examples for Linux VMs, including how to identify DSC extension usage and migrate configurations.
- Clarify whether machine configuration and DSC extension support Linux, and provide parity in migration steps for Linux users.
- Include Linux/macOS PowerShell module paths and usage patterns where relevant.
- Reference Linux-specific extension publishers/types if applicable, and provide Kusto queries/examples for Linux DSC extensions.
- Discuss differences in configuration management between Windows and Linux, including any limitations or requirements.
