Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias by exclusively referencing PowerShell scripts and WinGet (Windows package manager) as the primary mechanisms for task customization. All examples and instructions are centered around Windows tooling, with no mention of Linux shell scripts, Bash, or Linux-native package managers. The documentation does not provide Linux equivalents or alternatives, nor does it acknowledge cross-platform scenarios or how to customize Dev Boxes running Linux.
Recommendations
  • Include examples using Bash scripts and Linux shell commands alongside PowerShell examples.
  • Mention and provide guidance for using Linux package managers (e.g., apt, yum) in customization tasks.
  • Clarify whether Dev Box supports Linux-based environments and, if so, document how to create and manage tasks for those environments.
  • Add sample task.yaml configurations for Linux scenarios.
  • Ensure documentation language is inclusive of both Windows and Linux users, and avoid assuming PowerShell/WinGet as the default or only option.
