Summary
The documentation page exhibits a strong Windows bias. All example images are Windows-based (Visual Studio 2019/2022), and image requirements are exclusively for Windows OS (Windows 10/11 Enterprise). Instructions for image preparation rely on Windows-specific tools and commands (Sysprep, DISM, defrag, chkdsk, PowerShell), with no mention of Linux equivalents or support. There are no Linux image examples, requirements, or preparation steps, and the documentation does not address how to use or optimize Linux images for Dev Box.
Recommendations
  • Add explicit guidance and examples for creating and attaching Linux images to Azure Compute Gallery for Dev Box.
  • Include Linux-compatible image requirements and highlight any differences or limitations compared to Windows images.
  • Provide Linux-specific image preparation steps, such as generalizing images (e.g., using waagent or cloud-init), disk cleanup, and optimization commands.
  • Offer CLI or shell command examples for Linux image management, in addition to PowerShell and Windows tools.
  • Clarify whether Dev Box supports Linux images, and if not, state this limitation clearly at the start of the documentation.
