Summary
The documentation page demonstrates a strong Windows bias. The majority of policy definitions and examples are Windows-specific, with only a handful of Linux policies present. PowerShell Desired State Configuration (DSC) modules are referenced throughout, which are primarily Windows-centric tools. Windows tools and concepts (such as Windows Defender, PowerShell execution policy, domain membership, and time zone configuration) are mentioned exclusively or before any Linux equivalents. Linux coverage is minimal and often marked as 'Preview', with fewer examples and less detail.
Recommendations
  • Increase the number and detail of Linux-specific policy definitions and examples.
  • Provide parity in documentation for Linux tools and modules, including links and explanations similar to those given for Windows/PowerShell.
  • Avoid presenting Windows policies and tools first; consider grouping by OS or alternating examples.
  • Expand explanations to clarify how guest configuration works on Linux, including references to Linux-native configuration management tools (e.g., Ansible, Chef, or native shell scripts) if supported.
  • Ensure that for every Windows-specific example, a Linux equivalent is provided where possible.
  • Remove or balance language that implies Windows is the primary or default platform.
