Summary
The documentation page exhibits a strong Windows bias. All examples and built-in tasks focus on Windows-centric tools such as PowerShell and WinGet, with no mention of Linux equivalents (e.g., Bash, apt, yum). The only configuration management example uses PowerShell DSC, and the workflow assumes Windows-based environments. There are no Linux-specific instructions, examples, or references to Linux package managers or shell scripting. Windows tools and patterns are mentioned exclusively and are presented first and only.
Recommendations
  • Add examples for Linux-based dev boxes, including tasks using Bash scripts and Linux package managers (apt, yum, dnf, etc.).
  • Document how to use Linux equivalents for configuration management (e.g., Ansible, shell scripts) in image definition files.
  • Clarify whether Dev Box supports Linux images and, if so, provide parity in instructions and examples.
  • Include references to cross-platform tools and workflows, and explicitly state platform limitations if any exist.
  • Present Windows and Linux options side-by-side where possible, rather than focusing solely on Windows.
