Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a Windows bias by relying exclusively on PowerShell for all instructions and examples, including Linux scenarios. Windows-specific tools and patterns (e.g., MOF file paths, PowerShell cmdlets, output examples with Windows paths) are presented first and in detail, while Linux-specific instructions are minimal or deferred to external articles. There are no examples using native Linux tools or shell commands, and Linux users are expected to use PowerShell and Windows-centric workflows.
Recommendations
  • Provide Linux-native examples using Bash, shell scripting, or native Linux tools for authoring, compiling, and packaging configurations.
  • Include Linux file system paths and outputs in examples, not just Windows paths (e.g., show `/home/user/MyConfig` instead of `C:\dsc\MyConfig`).
  • Document alternative workflows for Linux users who may not use PowerShell, such as leveraging Ansible, shell scripts, or other configuration management tools.
  • Present Windows and Linux instructions in parallel, rather than Windows-first, to improve parity and clarity.
  • Clarify platform-specific requirements and limitations, and provide direct Linux examples within the main documentation rather than referring out to other articles.
